I have calculated the maximum torsional shear stress in a round tube and now wish to check that the material I choose (steel, type to be decided) will not fail.
Materials data tables give you the tensile yield stress, or 0.2% proof strength. Is there a rule or formula to convert the tensile...
Suppose I have 3 columns of data. If the value in the first column contains "F" and the value in the second column is "2006" then I want to add the number in the third column to a running total of the numbers in the thrid column that satisfied the criteria.
For example:
LF 2006 1...
I have 3 surfaces where one edge of surfaces 1 and 2 touch, and one edge of surfaces 2 and 3 touch. Solidworks will let me knit surface 1 to 2 and also let me knit 2 to 3. However if I try to knit the already knitted 1 and 2 to 3 or the already knitted 2 and 3 to 1 it will not do it: the final...
I am trying to trim two overlapping surfaces - I trim the first without a problem, but on trying to trim the remaining portion of the second surface get the message 'cannot partition surface, trim tool and target do not intersect'. How can I get round this - as far as I can see they must...
I am trying to trim a surface using a sketch. It works, but the trim projects through all surfaces, not just the one I wish to modify - there is no option to set a direction/depth as in 'cut' with solids.
Is there another way? I have tried creating an extruded surface from the sketch, then a...
I am trying to use the 'filled surface' command in solidworks 2005, but keep getting the error message 'Boundary is open and cannot be patched.Ensure there are no gaps in the boundary or use a closed boundary.'
Sounds simple but the 3 patch boundary lines I am using each have relations...
I need to make a model of a full size component (already drawn). How do I produce a new part that is 1/3 the size of the original?
I will then make some small modifications to this 1/3 scale part: so I would not be able to just change the drawing scale in the drawing.
Thanks for any help
