speed up SOL106 analysis?

Currently it takes about 1min to complete one analysis. however, i have over 40k bdf files. Is there a way that can significantly reduce the time? The Nastran Command options dont seem to help much.
 
my bdf file is 16.5mb large. i cant upload it here. but it is basically an implant fea model where i have to update each element material properties with a new relative density. The goal is to use stress and strain energy density data to minimize bone loss and interface failure.
 
Please help!!! Thank you so much
  • It would be difficult to get a run time much under a minute! There is overhead related to obtaining the license and just reading the input file. But it seems odd that a nonlinear solution would ever run that fast. If you would like, it might be best to take this over to a technical support path, where you could upload the file and this investigated further.
