Dear all,
I have a big assembly and want to model bolts in the complete assembly. What is the best and accurate way to model this.
Cbar analysis is accurate enough to analyse the bolt forces. Boltstress is of secundair interest.
Are there…
Dear all,
Is it possible to do a mesh refinement after parts have been meshed?
Or is it best way to make a seperate surface in CAD beforehand?
I would like to add a polynom to a certain selection for the mesh. So in fact a refinement according…
Dear all,
I would like to study some examples with linear gap elements. We don`t have SOL400 available and to have a work around for i.e. objects touching or near eachother.
Could you provide wtih some examples or give location of study material…
Dear all,
I have multiple models created in Patran. I have the abilitiy to solve with Nastran but I don`t have Nastran Sol400.
Is it possible to create a complete model with contacts in Patran and solve it with Marc?
Because I have enough…
Dear all,
After accessing resultfiles I would like to add a filter in which I delete the 1D results for showing in my contourplot.
In general bolts are modelled but I would like to filter these results in my fringe plot.
Can you help me…
As usual with a new release of Patran, there are new additions and updates in the Utilities menu. For full details see this SimCompanion article:

I would like to describe a rotation bearing. (Dynamic; Explicit Nonlinear) I already tried several kinds of displacements. But in all of them the solid (incl. density) either falls straight down or is fully constrained. (Please see the PDF attached) I…
I would like to know how I can loop through load cases and performs plot contour pressure then create a field assign pressure and go back to next load case and do the same operation again.
post group, group 1----create plot contour (pressure)-…
I am trying to create multiple fields based on load case count using PCL. My requirement is every time the field name should be changed. I used concatenate option. But it doesn't work. Any other way it can be done ?
Please find my code below .

Now that Patran 2017 is out, I thought it would be worth mentioning that there are new and updated functions in the Utilities. For full details see this SimCompanion article:

I would like to know any PCL function to plot contour----pressure----for a particular case ---all sets----Top Surface pr--- selected group---- and then Apply to create a contour plot. Thanks in advance.
