Simulations With Nx

This textbook explains how to perform computer aided analysis by using NX 10 Advanced Simulation with NX Nastran solver. It starts with analyzing a cantilevered beam and builds up the reader’s understanding of the concepts and process of structural analysis. Each chapter contains a typical example of analysis and is followed by a quiz to summarize the topics. In addition to the tutorial in each chapter, more commands and concepts are explained at the end of the chapter to help improve the reader’s understanding. The method for concluding an analysis is presented at the end of the tutorial for typical cases.Topics covered in this textbook - Chapter 1 through 3: Introducing NX 10 and Basic Modeling Techniques. - Chapter 4: Cantilevered Beam - Chapter 5: Effect of Fillet - Chapter 6: Effect of Stiffener - Chapter 7: Subcase and Symmetry - Chapter 8: Static Equilibrium and Singularity - Chapter 9: Using Coordinate System in Constraining - Chapter 10: Using 2D Elements - Chapter 11: Using 1D Elements - Chapter 12: Analysis of Truss Structure - Chapter 13: Connecting 2D Meshes - Chapter 14: Using 1D and 2D Meshes - Chapter 15: Using 1D and 3D Meshes - Chapter 16: Analyzing Alternator Bracket - Chapter 17: Contact Analysis - Chapter 18: Analyzing Bearing and Housing - Chapter 19: Spot Welding and Bolt Connection - Chapter 20: Analysis of Press Fit - Chapter 21: Quality of Elements - Chapter 22: Buckling Analysis - Chapter 23: Modal Analysis - Chapter 24: Thermal Analysis - Chapter 25: Fatigue Analysis

This book provides the necessary basics to perform simple to complex simulations with Siemens NX software. It is aimed at designers, CAE engineers, and engineering students. Based on NX 9 the following topics are covered in the book: Motion Simulation (MBD), Design Simulation FEA (Nastran), Advanced Simulation (FEA, CFD and EM) and the management of calculation and simulation data (Teamcenter for Simulation). Starting with brief theoretical introductions, each chapter contains learning tasks of increasing difficulty. Most of them are based on the CAD model of the legendary Opel RAK2. The CAD data and calculation results of all exercises can be found online. The exercises can be done in NX versions 8, 8.5, 9, 10 and probably later versions.

Testing and optimizing digital products with Siemens NX and Simcenter 3D In times of Industry 4.0 the digitalization of the value-chain becomes more and more important. The so-called digital twin allows simulations that are very close to reality. This book provides all necessary basics to perform simple as well as complex simulations with NX and Simcenter 3D (former NX CAE). It is aimed at design engineers, CAE engineers and engineering students. The following topics are covered in the book: - Motion Simulation (MBD) - Design Simulation (FEA, Nastran) - Simcenter/Advanced Simulation (FEA, CFD and EM) - Management of Calculation and Simulation Data (Teamcenter for Simulation) Starting off with brief theoretical introductions each chapter contains learning tasks of increasing difficulty. Most of them are based on the CAD model of the legendary Opel RAK2. The presented methods are based on NX 12 and Simcenter 3D, the new 3D CAE solution. Revised topics in this edition are Motion Simulation with the new Simcenter Motion solver and post-processing in Simcenter 3D (FEA). The CAD data and calculation results of all exercises can be found online. The exercises can be completed in NX 11, NX 12 and probably later versions.

The primary goal of Parametric Modeling with NX 9 is to introduce the aspects of designing with Solid Modeling and Parametric Modeling. This text is intended to be used as a practical training guide for students and professionals. This text uses NX 9 as the modeling tool, and the chapters proceed in a pedagogical fashion to guide you from constructing basic solid models to building intelligent mechanical designs, creating multi-view drawings and assembly models. This text takes a hands-on, exercise-intensive approach to all the important Parametric Modeling techniques and concepts. This textbook contains a series of thirteen tutorial style lessons designed to introduce beginning CAD users to NX. This text is also helpful to NX users upgrading from a previous release of the software. The solid modeling techniques and concepts discussed in this text are also applicable to other parametric feature-based CAD packages. The basic premise of this book is that the more designs you create using NX, the better you learn the software. With this in mind, each lesson introduces a new set of commands and concepts, building on previous lessons. This book does not attempt to cover all of the NX’s features, only to provide an introduction to the software. It is intended to help you establish a good basis for exploring and growing in the exciting field of Computer Aided Engineering.

The primary goal of Parametric Modeling with NX 12 is to introduce the aspects of designing with Solid Modeling and Parametric Modeling. This text is intended to be used as a practical training guide for students and professionals. This text uses NX 12 as the modeling tool, and the chapters proceed in a pedagogical fashion to guide you from constructing basic solid models to building intelligent mechanical designs, creating multi-view drawings and assembly models. This text takes a hands-on, exercise-intensive approach to all the important Parametric Modeling techniques and concepts. This textbook contains a series of fourteen tutorial style lessons designed to introduce beginning CAD users to NX. This text is also helpful to NX users upgrading from a previous release of the software. The solid modeling techniques and concepts discussed in this text are also applicable to other parametric feature-based CAD packages. The basic premise of this book is that the more designs you create using NX, the better you learn the software.
