I can remember I found some machine types somewhere to when I tried to find out how to post process the file but that seemed to be the wrong way for me.
About mechanica, the company I work for has decided to buy some mechanica licences and I think I have to learn this to. Now I'm working with ANSYS for a very short while, do you have any experience with this program? And do you have any experience with fatigue strength calculations on welding assemblies?
Thanks,
Bart
