Overview

These pages contain resources to aid mech members using NX. Expect this section to be updated on a regular basis with resources to help with setting up your FE model, setting up and running different simulations and more.

To install NX, you'll want to take a look at this document, which outlines the NX license renewal, installation and setup procedures.

Alternatively, you can also run NX on the UTAT CAD Machine. It is recommended that you do any large simulations on this computer. [Page not yet inserted]
