    Model goes away in NX2

    I am using NX2 modeling. When I have a large assembly and I use "fit" or "replace view" the screen goes blank and the only thing I see is WCS. I have enough memory and UGS has checked my graphics card, it is not the problem. If I use "orient view" sometimes the model comes back but some other...

    LINEAR TET ELEMENTS

    Do u know why when plotting contour stresse of linear tet elements (which I usually avoid except for first run or displacements only) there are several color bands (stress levels)across the element. I thought linear displacement interpolation should give constant stress across the element...

    stress is greater than yield but plastic strain is zero?

    I am doing a plastic analysis of cantilevered curved steel beam of I shape. Post processing results are: stress in tension flange (smaller radius) is 135 ksi , total engineering strain is 0.00387 , and plastic strain is zero. my input (engineering) stress strain data are: point 1 (yield)...
