Re: Projecting a drawing onto a curvature

I gave it a try and realized that grooves aren't really necessary, pockets are sufficient. This model is not designed to be extremely stable as the sketches are attached directly to the faces. It is just to show the idea. Thanks, that was exactly what i wanted to do, I was too focussed on thinking ...

Projecting a drawing onto a curvature

I want to cut a path on the inside of a tube, but I am not sure on how to do it in FreeCad. My first idea was if it was possible to project drawing onto a circular face, and use it to make a cut. But I don't know if this is something FreeCad ca do, or if there is a better way. I have tried to make a...

Re: FEM - Dynamic Loads?

Sorry I am late replying, have been ill. I am relativly new to FreeCad and have no experience in Python, so i have possible misunderstood the post on Steady State Dynamic Analysis. So would like to check if I understood it correctly. What I understood and did was make a simple part to test on before...

FEM - Dynamic Loads?

I have a project where I have essentially a mechanical hammer hitting object with a down force of 160kN in a percussion rate of 32 Hz. I am not able to find out how in the FEM module to apply a dynamic load, if that is even possible in FreeCAD. So I was hoping somebody could help me, or direct me to...

Are version 0.17 officially out?

Hello
I am a bit confused about whether or not 0.17 has gone from a development release to a full release.
People seem to talk about it as if it is the current version, but under downloads on the wiki it still directs to the 0.16.6712 Version.

Thanks for any answer that can help clear this up for me.
