1. Merging Databases:
Construct two databases which have distinct similarities and differences then see how PATRAN resolves model conflicts and differences when the two databases are imported into a combined third database.New Features in MSC/PATRAN 5.0-6.0-PAT328
1. Merging Databases:
Construct two databases which have distinct similarities and differences then see how PATRAN resolves model conflicts and differences when the two databases are imported into a combined third database.
2. Cylinder with T-Beam Stiffeners:
Create a cylinder and apply loads then use the beam library to add stiffeners to the cylinder.
3. Keymapping PCL Functions:
Import an express neutral file then Key Map several PATRAN commands to one key. Use the session file generated by PATRAN to create a PCL function.
4. Freebody Analysis of a Truss:
Create the geometry for a simple truss and perform a freebody analysis on the truss.
5. Mass Properties Calculations:
Import a unigraphics express file and apply mass properties to a propeller.
6. Composite Trimmed Surfaces:
Import a CAD model into a database, repair disjointed surfaces by creating composite surfaces then mesh the newly created composite surfaces.
7. Crushed Pipe:
Perform large displacement analysis, rigid contact analysis using analytic rigid surfaces and then plasticity modeled with perfectly plastic material for a crushed pipe.
7a. Crushed Pipe:
Perform large displacement analysis, rigid contact analysis using analytic rigid surfaces and then plasticity modeled with perfectly plastic material for a crushed pipe.
8. Projected Coordinate Systems:
Become familiar with the difference between Global and Projected-Global coordinate systems and realize the importance of both coordinate systems.
