Is it possible to suppress parts in Patran? I would like to perform small tests with contacts but not all parts are needed. Of course I don`t want to delete mesh.
In the Analysis group one can perform an analyze by a selected group so that would be a backup. But then I have to perform first a new group.
4276 errors are typically associated with running out of resources (e.g. filling up your disk). There should be other related error messages in the f06 that might give a better idea of what's causing the problem.
If you don't have enough tokens to run Patran and Nastran at the same time, then after you submit the run quit out of Patran - Nastran should then automatically pick up on the tokens that Patran has released.
Alernatively, use the "Analysis Deck" option instead to write out the model, then run it in Nastran.
