Torque = Force × Distance. In Caesar, the torque at a certain point is calculated by multiplying the force by the corresponding distance. The values for force and torque are as follows: NODE FX N. FY N. FZ N. MX N.m. MY N.m. MZ N.m. 10 -275 -6 2163 -12 3528 115 Rigid ANC 20 0 24 0 0 0 0 Rigid +Y 30 0 -84 0 0 0 0 Rigid +Y 40 0 316 0 0 0 0 Rigid +Y 50 0 -1012 0 0 0 0 Rigid +Y 60 0 4189 0 0 0 0 Rigid +Y 76 0 -5876 0 0 0 0 Rigid +Y 80 0 2565 0 0 0 0 Rigid +Y 82 66 -194 -425 -351 -35183 -90 Rigid ANC. For example, for the first node, 12/275 = 0.043636 m. I can’t find a distance of 0.043636 m in the diagram; how is this torque value calculated? Also, when I try to export the calculation results in Word format, it shows a message saying “The item with the specified name does not exist,” and the document in Word ends up being blank. Exporting to a .out format file works fine; what’s the issue? This post was last edited by chuanlin2000 on 2009-3-21 20:05.]
An error occurs when exporting to Word format; it’s a problem with the Word output module. If you have a legitimate version, updating it to the latest version will resolve the issue! This post was last edited by fanking on 2009-3-21 21:49]
When I exported the calculation results in Word format, it showed a message saying “The item with the specified name does not exist,” and the document in Word ended up being blank. Exporting to a .out format file works fine; what’s the issue? I had the same problem a few days ago; you just need to download the latest patch update. The problem can be solved simply by updating the OutWord.dll file. I can now export to WORD normally.
First question: \"For example, for the first node, 12/275 = 0.043636 m. I can’t find a distance of 0.043636 m in the graph; how is this torque calculated?\" ”The force at that point has no inherent connection with the torque at that point; the torque is the product of a force acting on a different point and a distance. Therefore, “12/275=0.043636m” is meaningless. This torque is a resultant torque. Second question: “Also, when I try to export the calculation results in Word format, I get a message saying ‘The item with the specified name does not exist’, and the document in Word ends up being blank.” Exporting to a .out format file works fine; what’s the issue? ”It’s probably a problem with the Word output module; I haven’t tried the methods for floors 2 and 3, so I’ll learn from them*. I’ve encountered problems after exporting graphics; every time I closed the stress condition window and reopened it, exporting in Word format worked without issues. There’s no better method than those for the 2nd and 3rd floors.
There is a theory that can explain this issue well: torque is not caused by a single force acting on a point, but rather by the entire piping system acting on that point; you can think of it in terms of the superposition and cancellation of waves
“10 -275 -6 2163 -12 3528 115” indicates the force and torque at 10 o’clock!
