Hi all,
I am new to the forum and to Pro-engineer. I am a complete noob to FEA having only done a few analyses on a few basic assemblies to get into using it.
I have been trying to analyse a structure I designed, I built an separate FEA model, simplifying as much as possible and modelling the welds but I am having problems when I run the analysis. It starts ok but when it gets to "Pre-processing volume features", it runs for a few seconds then just stops for no apparent reason, no error message, just goes from "running" to "not running".
I have tried altering the accuracies in the parts to get the tolerances closer together but this hasn't helped and thoughts would be much appreciated.
