2. Click File > Manage Session > Set Working Directory and navigate to the
PTCU\CreoParametric2\Simulate_Modeling\Interfaces folder and click OK

3. Click File > Open and double-click WELDED_JOINT_SIMULATE.ASM .

Creo Parametric users open WELDED_JOINT.ASM

Task 1. Review the temperature load in the model.

1. In the model tree, expand Loads/Constraints and Load Set LoadSet1.

2. Right-click Load1 and select Edit Definition. The Structural Temperature Load dialog box
appears.

3. Review the load information and click OK.

Task 2. Define the resultant force measure.

1. In the ribbon, select the Home tab.

2. Click Measures from the Run group. The Measures dialog box appears.

3. Click New. The Measure Definition dialog box appears.

4. Complete the Measure Definition dialog box as shown. After selecting Surfaces in the Spatial
Evaluation section, click Select Reference and select Surf:F8(REVOLVE_1):STAMP in the
model.
