I have been advised by my reseller not to install Solidworks 2009 until SP2 or SP3 comes out (then why release it?). Just wondering if anyone can give me the heads up.

Thanks,

I left an analysis running last night which took 8 hours. The results files (.cwr, .pc1, .pc0, .p45, .p39, .log) are all saved, with the .cwr and .log being at 2:39 AM and the others at 1:45 AM. The contents of the .log file are:

No. of nodes = 225726
No. of elements = 118865
No. of DOF = 673470
Total solution time = 08:07:57

It appears that my analysis completed. When I got in this morning, my computer had logged off. I think our network guys may have set it up to log everybody off sometime in the middle of the night for security reasons. Anyway, I guess SW was probably not closed properly. When I open SW and click on the CW tab, it appears as thought the analysis had never run. I have had this problem before. Is there any way to get access to results that are there but are not recognized by CW?

Thanks,

Dave. ]]> https://forum.solidworks.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=9&threadid=14605 Tue, 02 Sep 2008 10:51:38 EST f g 3 So, here's my problem: when I request Cosmosworks to generate a .doc report, I immediately get an "Exception Thrown" popup, and nothing happens.
No file is written on the specified directory, word does not start, generally speaking there's no sign of activity following this command.
HTML reports work properly.

I am running MS Word 2003 on XP o.s.

Any tip related to this issue?

Thanks!

The main issue is the max stress/max strain occurs at the contact points. I don't care about the stresses at the contact points. The part will yield a little at the contact points but this is not important. What is important is the stresses caused away from the contact points. I need to know the max at of all locations except the contact area! ]]> https://forum.solidworks.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=9&threadid=14538 Thu, 28 Aug 2008 15:36:15 EST Ben Floan 7

PCG iterative solver stopped.
Status Code:9 MATRIX_SINGULAR_OR_INDEFINITE

is it a solid work error or i am doing any mistake?

please check it and reply soon. ]]> https://forum.solidworks.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=9&threadid=14443 Tue, 26 Aug 2008 04:27:35 EST Paul Ranford 4
I guess its possible for me to apply a Radial Load arond the face of an object at a given angle (30 degrees) only, instead of all of the face/surface taking the force?

In my case I'm looking to set my radial Force at 30 degree. Please see image attached

Can you please help. ]]> https://forum.solidworks.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=9&threadid=14369 Thu, 21 Aug 2008 11:47:04 EST Brendan L 3 I have been developing a macro in Cosmosworks for the past 2 weeks and have noticed something that has made it extremely hard to work with. Over the past 2 weeks the time for my macro has jumped from 4 minutes an iteration to around 1hr30 min an iteration. There has been no significant change to my macro that would make this jump logical. I tried working through my macro by hand, and it took 5 min just to open the cwForce menu. What I think might be an issue is the license or the license server having difficulty so I looked into it. Here is what I found:

13:49:59 (SW_D) UNSUPPORTED: "cae_cwdesigner" [name computer] (License server system does not support this feature.
13:49:59 (SW_D) UNSUPPORTED: "cae_cwpro" [name of computer] (License server system does not support this feature.

I was wondering if someone with more CW experience could help me designate the issue at hand. What I am thinking is that the 2 'unsupported' features are integral parts of the cosmosworks program, and there is an issue with the retrieval of said functionality from the server. However, the weird part is that the license server has a full version of the cosmosworks professional license on it. The even weirder part is there is no difference in the type of error or the frequency of the errors between the 4 minute case and the 1hr30min case. If anyone has any information about said issue, I would be greatly appreciative.

Modulus of Elasticity, 197e3 MPa
Poisson's Ratio, .272
Density, 7800Kg/m^3
UTS, 1448MPa
.2% YS, 1379MPa


I want to estimate a elastoplastic model to explore the RESIDUAL DEFORMATION. The model is similar to a beam but with a slightly varying cross section. The load is applied and then released.

I need to estimate what Cosmos calls RK which defines the proportion of kinematic and isotropic hardening. What is the difference between isotropic hardening and kinematic hardening? How does each effect the model? Cosmos's help file is over my head.
