I am so frustrated with the results I obtained. I am using Creo 2.0.
A shaft that was clamp on both end and was loaded in the center of the shaft. If I just ran a static structural analysis. The max Vm is 23K psi and deflection is 0.07. This is the answer that I expected.
But then I need to know what's the change in temperature will do to this result...so I use the strutural temperature load under structure mode and set the temp of entity to 1400 F and reference to 72 F temp. After I ran the strutural analysis. The Vm value went crazy and in the range of 6 millions but the deflection at 0.11 in. Do I approach this problem correctly? Please help
