Exercise 1 – Analyzing a Solid Part

Introduction In this exercise, you perform a linear stress analysis of a lower control arm using the following process:  Set Femap Preferences to use millimeters as the Geometry

Scale Factor and to use the extended metal alloy material database and other settings.  Import a Parasolid solid.  Assign a material and a property to the control arm.  Apply Constraints and Loads to the geometry.  Mesh the control arm.  Create an Analysis Set and submit to NX Nastran to complete the analysis.  Display the results. The preferences and units used in this exercise are: Solid Geometry Scale Factor: Millimeters Force:
