Is it possible to use the Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) to additively manufacture interconnected porous structure generation of >100-200 micrometer?

Usually, additive manufacturing techniques like SEBM, SLS, and SLM are used for interconnected porous lattice structure generation with sizes of >100–200 micrometers. Can the Fused Deposition...

How to define an anisotropic material with asymmetric elastic compliance/stiffness matrix in ANSYS APDL?

I need to model an anisotropic material in which the Poisson's ratio ν_12 ≠ ν_21 and so on. Therefore, the elastic compliance matrix wouldn't be a symmetric one. In ANSYS APDL, for TB,ANEL...

Mplus also works!

Tina Kretschmer

Mplus does not do plots on the Mac (or at least not as easily as on PC). I came across Onyx (free, all platforms) the other day but have not tried it yet: http://onyx.brandmaier.de/

Ah, nice to know, thanks!

A good alternative is the package SEM in Stata.

Juan José Igartua

Thanks everybody!

According to my experiences, if your model is Variance-based SEM, than SmartPLS 3.0 is a good candidate to use. You can try this software by download it in http://www.smart-pls.de. However, of your model is Covariance-based SEM, I suggest to try AMOS.

Stata is fantastic if you have institutional access and/or are willing to cough up the money for a perpetual license. It does seem R is the way to go. Though I have not yet worked with R, I use the following program to graphically represent my SEM models. It can produce estimates for you as well as export code to a handful of R and other packages. http://onyx.brandmaier.de/

I have tried to install

I have tried to install Onyx (http://onyx.brandmaier.de/download/) but it has been impossible!

Hi,

You can do graphs in Mplus on MAC. It also depends what you want to so with your SEM. There is a lot STATA cant do yet unfortunately. R is free but takes time and dedication to learn. I have all three so I know the pros and cons.

Hope it helps.

I've used Onyx, which a great visualizer -- and you can generate/import code from Onyx into R and MPlus, possibly others. Stata is also fantastic.

It was impossible to install Onyx. Help, please!

Maybe it would be useful to know at which point the installation did not work, your system specs etc. It's difficult to help if you don't provide any specific information.

I do not know which file I have to use to install Onyx. I am a newcomer Mac user

have you ever installed anything on your mac? as in, do you have issues with the mac or with onyx?

My problem is with this software. I have already installed SPSS and Office without any problem. I know how to install in Mac but it has been impossible to do the same with Onyx

And what exactly is the problem? does the program not open? I've just successfully installed on a Macbook Pro OS X 10.10. The download format is .jar and since it is not downloaded from the Apple store I initially got a warning - Yosemite by default only allows installation of verified programs but you can override that in your security settings (Finder > System Preferences > Security and Privacy > tick "anywhere" in "allow apps downloaded from"). Hope this helps?

Thanks. I have a folder with several files, but I do not find any file with .dmg extension, so I am unable to install the program.

Are you working with OS X 10? Try double-clicking on the .jar in your downloads, this installed and opened the program for me. I think you tried to unarchive, which, indeed, does not produce a dmg.

Yes, I work with OS X 10. I think I have resolved the problem. Thank you for your help and patience!
