Regarding point 3 ¿did you Extract (Unzip) the ccx folder or just copy paste? You need to unzip. In my case it looks like this: Check those files "cannot stat" thye are where they should

This are the detailed instructions contained in the installation folder of MECWAY. In my case C:\Program Files\Mecway\Mecway17\ccxMecway/ccx/ccx_win64_mkl_pardiso_source_2.19.zip file -Instructions for building the following on Windows: 64 bit …

¿Are you using ver.14 for some specific reason?. There have been some bug fixes on the last versions/years. Last versions have a folder with all the required instruction to compile ccx v2.19 with MKL Pardiso OCC. Regarding your warning it happens b…

I have to right click on Loads & Constraints in the tree and then I get the option to set it. Right. It works that way. Take note of the nodes number first.
-
Look at Loads & Constraints ---> New Constraint equation

¿Are you considering steel as the main material for the truss?. You have a Young Modulus of 200Mpa. ¿Don't you mean 200 GPa.?

Much, much faster. It is instantly noticeable. Thanks once again for the update.
-
I have never use it, but you can mesh just the edge nodes with gmsh. Also you could mesh everything and select only what you need later.
-
Hi NoahKatz, I would say that both , adding beams to an edge and meshing only one face could be solved once the mesh is generated by adding them manually or removing the unnecessary faces, respectively. If you have a typical step file you normally …
-
Yep, -Select all the holes inside surface with the edge detecting tool. -Extrude to the inside direction (normal) to create the solid pipe. Recommended three elements per thickness -Inmediately create a new component. -Hide all but the new componen…

You need to input a value at the Second moment of area in your last file KM_32b_static.
-
I have requeste it in the solution tree directly. Not a formula. Right click on top of Solution--->>New Stress and Strain-->Stress in element coordinates. Appart from that, I don't think the material properties are right in your file KM32a…
-
Try Stress in element coordinates.

it would be nice to have harmonic analysis ¿Isn't CalculiX manual v2.20 7.117 *STEADY STATE DYNAMICS that?.? If this is what you are requesting, maybe it is possible with custom cards. First line: • *STEADY STATE DYNAMICS • enter any of the param…

I think you need to switch to 3D

Hi Dculp, Prop_design Here there is an example with a beam in Dynamic 2D. Dynamic also needs a gravity load to convert the mass into an inertial load. I have found something that doesn’t seem to work but this is not my area and maybe I have set up …
-
In dynamic analysis there are inertial forces. I would say the beam needs density too.

Here some example

Forget about fixed support. Set x,y=0.

Thanks Victor, Circular pipe seems fine the whole range and the hallow Torsional Constant converge to the solid when diminishing internal radio. Seems Square is not so simple and people goes to tools based on the finite element method to compute th…
-
I have confirmed that the formula is only valid for thin-walled Rectangular Tubes. 16. Hollow rectangle, thin-walled Roark's Formulas. @Victor _ ¿Does this value participate in any computation or is it just informative?
-
Hi, If you are dealing with pipes and solid bars look at this recent post about accuracy of circular sections. https://calculix.discourse.group/t/psa-always-use-pipe-not-circ-for-circular-beam-section/1286 Not sure yet if this apply to the inter…

You always learn something new Thanks
-
The gradient, "second image" seems to have a more volumetric feeling probably by an additional external light. ¿Shouldn’t the lighting effects be reserved for the modeling window?
-
I guess if the reason is not the lightning effect more than the interpolation process ?¿?. For two homogeneous spheres with uniform solution the final tone is different too.
-
Hi Victor, I would like, if possible, that : Components&Materials Load&Constrains Named Selections to be properly sorted when they are renamed with numbers.
-
Updated for v17. Now it works again. From Victor solution ( https://mecway.com/forum/discussion/1180/two-concentrated-loads-fluxes-different-amplitudes) "Version 16/17 applies shell edge forces in a more accurate way that includes moments that acc…

HI dculp, ¿Could you give it a try to the following custom gmsh commands? I have try some models and it respects the edge lenght in the inside volume with a pretty mesh too. You will need to -Install gmsh and point to gmsh.exe in tools>option…
