Working with large assemblies in the CATIA V5 system can be very demanding. Even with the use of extremely powerful machines and workstations, working with large assemblies often leads to the crashing of the system with the error message “Click OK to terminate” appearing. To avoid this error, this blog discusses some recommendations for optimizing the system…

Memory consumption in CATIA V5 drafting depends on the CAD data that is loaded in the CATIA session. The memory consumption increases due to loading of both 2D and 3D data, which further increases due to loading of the data in design mode. This blog focuses on the causes of high memory consumption and the ways to…

The one aspect which is the most desirable while performing an analysis is that it should complete without any errors or interruptions. However, this is not the case. While performing any analysis, there are several interruptions more often than not like large memory, machine crash etc. To rectify these errors and minimize interruptions, there is a concept…

Startups come up with new designs and inventions. However, qualifying them as a viable product in a short period of time and preparing them for production and commercialization has many challenges. Some of the challenges could be: Design finalization and approvals as per industrial standards Prioritizing consumer experience Overcoming expensive physical validations Achieving the first-mover advantage Getting…

The analysis of geotechnical problems is rather complex due to stress dependent material behavior and varying stiffness for loading and unloading conditions. Generally, soil has three different phases which are soil skeleton, pore air and pore water which often lead to complex interaction mechanism. Also, large deformation of soil continuum is observed under loading. Such complex behavior,…

There are multiple ways to save a document in CATIA V5. It sometimes depends on organization guidelines. In this blog, multiple options of saving a document in CATIA V5 are discussed. For saving a CATIA V5 document, three options are available. Click on Tools ➜ Options ➜ General ➜ under General tab ➜ Data Save to access…
