I was just going through my earlier posts and saw a reply/advice you gave me 5 years ago. Just wanted to say thank you, your advice had a positive impact on my career.

Shigley' Mechanical Engineering Design comes to mind. If you don't already have it, you should invest in it

Can you post a picture of the product you make and the defects you encounter?

Check ANSYS's website.

Thanks for your reply The NDT program I applied to, is a one year program, for degree holders. I don't mind doing either one. I'm leaning towards the Quality engineering program, and the job prospects of NDT in Canada seem to be a bit better (source:google), but which one in general would have...

I'm in a dilemma right now. I've a mechanical engineering degree, and I wanted to supplement it with something before I join the work force, so I applied to two programs, Quality engineering post grad diploma, and a Non-Destructive testing technician diploma. Which one do you think has better...

SHELL181 is a 3D layered element. SHELL99 and SHELL91 are not supported anymore, I can manually add them to my analysis, but then when I click solve, nothing happens.

Hi, I'm analyzing a composite leaf spring using ANSYS APDL, the leaf spring has a thickness of 12mm, and since it is a composite material, it is composed of many plies, I'm assuming the ply thickness to be 0.125mm. I imported the geometry as a Parasolid x_t. And the element type I used is...

Is it 3.6/4. If that is the case 3.6 out of 4 is still a very good GPA. I think you have nothing to worry about as long as you are not going to do graduate studies on music. What universities look at is a combination of your academic standing, work experiences, projects you've worked on etc. And...

Read the ANSYS element guide. They explain all the element types and when to use them

Yeah I will, and thanks a lot to both of you.

I'm not asking you to do my project for me. Just asking for a point to the right direction.

3rd year, I studied it, in my first year thermodynamics. Don't remember much about it now

Thanks for the reply, I'm doing a mechanical engineering degree, and this is a project I'm working on. I'm not concerned in assembling different parts together and coming up with result, but justifying why each component and calculating design numbers of each component. My problem is with the...

I'm working on a project to design Atmospheric Water Generator, to generate 3 litres of water per day. and I'm using the same concept as dehumidifier. My problem is I want to figure out how powerful my compressor should be. I need to calculate that, given a heat flow rate of 352.91 kJ/hour...
