    Looking for a Female Human Head Model

    Hello All- Does anyone know of a place to download a reasonable accurate, somewhat aesthetic, model of a female head. I am designing a bluetooth headset and want to render the model on a female head to show the customer. Either paid or free sites will work. The model has to be solidworks...

    PWM DC Motor Control

    Can anybody point me towards a good reference (preferrably and internet article) about PWM DC Motor Control? I need to control a small 5V DC motor so that it quickly moves to a specified position and holds that position untill commanded further. I am currently using a software algorithm that...

    Measuring Deformation Values from a Deformation Plot

    Hello Everyone- Is there a way to measure the deformation of a model in Cosmos? The deformation plot appears to measure the departure of the model from it's orignal shape as opposed to the displacement plot that measures the departure of a point in the model relative to ground. Is there a way...

    Corrosion of a fittings in a stainless steel vessel

    I am testing a structure inside a stainless steel vessel filled with sea water. The structure has a brass fitting and several titanium fasteners. Neither the fitting nor fasteners come in contact with the vessel or each other but will be aprroximately 1 foot away from the vessel walls and each...

    Galvanic Corrosion

    Two metals that form a galvanic couple (brass and 304 stainless steel for example) are immersed in salt water and near eachother (approx 1 foot apart), but not touching. Will the brass corrode? Is the salt water enough of an electrical conduction path to create galvanic corrosion? Thanks for...

    Bolt Torque Coefficients

    Hi All- Does anyone know of a good resource for bolt torque coefficients? I need to determine the axial preload, given the installation torque, on a copper fitting being screwed into an acetal housing. Thanks for the help!

    Sealed Container under pressure

    I am using Cosmos/Works to analyze the deflection of a sealed container in a pressurized environment. In use, the entire container would be slightly "squeezed" towards it's center of gravity. However, Cosmos requires that I contrain some part of the model in order to create a boundary condition...

    Pressure Vessel Boundary Conditions

    Hello Everyone- I am using Cosmos/Works to analyze a sealed container that will be placed in a pressurized environment. I need to determine what the deflection of the container will be under a given pressure. My problem is that Cosmos requires me to fix some part of the assembly in order to...
