i can mesh but it doesnt run

1-FKI4X8 Jul 1, 2009 12:28 PM

hi all,
i have a an assembly model to be analysed for frequency. this is basically almost all components made of sheet metal. but the problem is i can mesh the entire model, it cant run the analysis, i have given the number of frequency as only 5, and direct sparse solver, infact tried with all solvers available. But it does not solve the problem. Solidworks gives a message that NOT RESPONDING and gone is my analysis. Any help highly appreciated thanks.

Hi,

Was the model constrained propely?

Was this a big mesh (large number of elements)?

  hi pie,
  model is constrained at the bottom mounts using fixed restraints, and mesh details: no.of nodes- 18118
  no.of elements- 12867
  but when i say run the study solidworks says NOT RESPONDING in the task manager.

    Hi, Shankar,
    
    This is a small mesh. I have no idea without checking the details of your model. If this is not a proprietary design model, then, I can try to see if I can find anything wrong if you email me the model.

        Hi,
        
        Yes, I got the model. Each time I tried to run the case, SolidWorks crached - so there is something wrong with the setup.
        
        Unfortunately, something urgent came up. I will try to troubleshoot this case as soon as I have the chance.
