  • How to Import T16 results file to Mentat?

    I have solved Nastran SOL600 file. Now, I have a T16 results file. I would like to import this into Marc Mentat (version 2017.1.0) and view the results file. Need assitance on how to get this done.

  • Change Flow Curve / Plasticity Curve of nodes with different cooling time

    I managed to develop an algorithm using subroutine PLOTV to calculate and display the T8/5 (cooling time between 800degC - 500degC) of nodes due to welding process. Now, I want to insert new property for nodes with different T8/5 time range…

    Is it possible to extract the node history by not using GUI (may be from .t16 file)??? Our model is too long, it will crash or stuck if we use GUI to extract node temperature history.
  • Help with double cantilever beam problem (cohesive elements)

    Does anyone have experience with modeling the double cantilever beam problem? I would like to replicate the results from this paper: www.sciencedirect.com/.../S0013794406003808 I am using plane strain elements. I tried quad4 and quad8, different…
  • How do Boundary Conditions behave in a rotating coordinate system?

    I am doing a model of a misaligned gear coupling. On one hand, I have the "male" where I apply the torque and in the other hand I have the "female", which is misaligned and to whom I want to apply an angular velocity . My bodies are associated to…

  • How to fix nodes in current position in the following load case?

    I have a static model that at the first load case, I applied a force to a body and it moved. In the next load case, I want to fix that body( nodes in that body) so they keep the same position as they are at the end of first load case. How to do it ? Thank…
