jamfu Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 I am using the structural analysis fea tool in inventor, and I cannot seem to find a way to be able to look at stresses for a single point along my model, for hand calculation comparison. Is there a way to do so? If so, how? Any help would be appreciated. Jamfu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The basic FEA in Inventor is intended for single part analysis, you might want to download this technology preview - http://labs.autodesk.com/technologies/advanced_simulation/ In the current Inventor all you can do is indicate a min max area.

Lazer Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 Down loaded the new FEA from Inventor labs and it looked ok, not sure I will master it but looks good, lets hope it's free with IV2010, if not, I will not be paying for it.

This is typically how i check things are in the right area, but i have not found a way to pinpoint a spot in the middle of a part. Im typically interested in the points which are stress risers and usually the max stress location anyway. I have to do some analysis this week so ill have another look.
