I use overridemessage to create a point on an already existing point like below:
ui_override_message(1000034, "YESTOALL")
I have this situation in my routine in several places and it Works well. The following is a part of the session…
Hi
I got a problem with deisplay of results using Deformation Plot in Patran. Its showing unrealistic deformation. NO problem with quick plot or fringe plot.
Nastran doesn't show any warning or error messages.
When I tried to check the…
I am getting the error "DraGwtStateData" when trying to attach HDF5 results from a large SOL400 run (10GB). Is this to do with the file size being too big?
I just installed Patran18 on my Windows10 PC. I imported some NX surfaces and solids and my global coordinate system is not showing. have Show Global Axes toggled on.
Is there a way to plot temperature differences between two different nrfs? Same mesh, same time point, just want to post the difference in metal temperatures after making a boundary change,
I just did a fresh install of Patran 2017. I am running a 3e6 dof line sol101 model that runs in 8 minutes and produces an op2 file that is 5.9GB in size. It takes over 2 hours to attache the op2 in Patran. Once attached then I can do my post processing…
Is it possible to add a list of results to Patran?
A textfile in which the node ID is listed plus a certain value, for example can be created as input?
Thanks in advance.
I just started using Patran 2017. I make extensive use of pcl scripts for post processing. I use png format for superior quality. I just noticed that all my plots now have black background even though it should be white to match the screen. This did not…
I try to import the MARC result file, t16 into patran through access reults , attach T16/19, both.
but it failed in importing the T16 file into patran
The error message is as below.
For reference , patran version 2018, MARC version…
Prior to 2017, you could hit the ALT key to get to the menu items, such as the File, Group, Viewport, etc. This was very helpful as you can press a few keys to post/create/modify groups, print a file, etc.
Now when you hit ALT, you can get…
Hi all
I need to allow the mesher to generate tet mesh in some complicate solid areas.; however, I need to join the interface with another solid created with hexa solids. (typical example- crankshaft with webs. the webs are tets, shaft with hex.…
In Patran 2017.0.3, if the mouse cursor is hovering over .db file name or tab name and I click the center mouse button, the window minimizes/disappears/closes. How do I restore the window?
My only solution thus far is to start from scratch…
I have 2 models which works separately fine.
I imported them in one file. In fact an upper part and a bottom part (two assemblies).
Alo this model runs.
However when I perform a FEM Transport which takes 15min for only rotating the upper…
Are there limitations for importing a DB file into another?
General speaking I have two working (large?) models which I want to add together.
When I import the file into the amother, at the end, this import is UNDONE by Patran. Probably a conflict…
I would like to import part of one model into another.
How can this best be done for Patran, without conflicting ID numbers and so?
So it should be only mesh, not geometry.
Thanks.
Dear all,
I have erased geometry and mesh with plot/erase function, and when I select the visible nodes (which I want) still nodes are selected which are NOT visible.
How is this possible? Is there a setting which I have to select?
Thanks…
Where are the Patran 2017 manuals for PCL programming. The last ones I have are for 2013. Specifically you have altered the behavior of the gm_write_image function and I need to see what has changed between v2013 and v2017. With v2017 I am now getting…
Could you tell me the ratio of Kinematic Hardening and Isotropic Hardening if I select Combined Hardening in Materials Properties?
And if it is possible to set the ratio of Kinematic Hardening, how can I do it?
Unable to open Direct Results Access file: "R:\CAx\CAE\cae_test***_LCDEF_STRESS.xdb". Please i) verify that the file exists and is a valid results file for the current analysis preference; or ii) delete the attachment using the Analysis form option Delete…
Can the stress tensor XY component result for a given position (Z1, Z2) in patran be calculated from the shell forces, force resultant and moment resultant? Provided you have the PSHELL thickness? Is the moment resultant (XY) even used?
I just learned that the Max Combined Stress is just combined Axial and Bending Stress. Do Patran has a way to combine all of axial, bending and torsion shear?
