    SimulationXPress with Glass Fibers as material, problems!!

    Hello people.
    I want to do some evaluation in SW using the SimulationXPress, the part I want to simulate is made out of glass fiber. But I can`t do the simulation because solidworks don`t have enough values on the different properties of the glass fibers. How can I put in these missing values into SW?

    Isn`t there anybody who have made stress simulation with glass fiber as material?

    Probably not here Sperstad.. Your best bet would be to hit up the forums on the solidworks site. https://forum.solidworks.com
    Just when you thought you had it all figured out, all hell breaks loose..

    You`re probably right, I will try that!

    You might not have any luck since the glass fibers might require fracture probability and Von Misses does not address that. I have never done any work with glass fibers, this is just a guess on my part.
