Dear community, I recently run a winprop simulation with SRT on a vecttorized terrain landascape, and the same one with UTD in Feko (wallman produced the corresponding nasran mesh). I am a bit puzzled when I see that winprop can locate very few reflections at the surface polygons of my topography whereas feko can properly…
I am a new user working with Altair ESAComp 2020 for a university composite sandwich panel design project. According to our project guidelines, we are required to modify only the core layer thickness of the sandwich structure to meet buckling deformation criteria. We are explicitly instructed not to add extra plies or…
I was recently using PSIM on another PC, but I upgraded some hardware components and can't deactivate the license from the old machine. How should I proceed to activate the license on my new PC?
I cannot drive latest 2026 version, and thus I am looking for the latest with the classic GUI which I think it is 2022.3. I cannot find this in the DOWNLOAD area, does anyone know how to download this version? Can you provide a link please? Thanks for your time
How can I define the time increment for the animation in HyperView (Transient Mode)? The "Increment by:" box does not allow values below 1. E.g. I cannot define a time-step of 0.01 s for instance. Thank you!
Hi, My name is Federico, and I am a Master's student in Mechanical Engineering at the University of Padua in Italy. I am currently writing my Master's Thesis that involves implicit modeling and, during my research, I found some very helpful images and technical descriptions on the official documentation site that I would…

Hello, I wonder which is the right command to allocate memory for a EIGRL run. I managed to use four threads with "-nt 4", but I don't know how to allocate 45GB of memory. Kind regards
Hello all, I would like to check the correct realization of my tie contacts in my Hypermesh/OptiStruct-EIGRL-calculation after the solution has completed. In MSC Nastran, there is a switch called "NLOPRM MPCPCH=BEGN" allowing to check the MPC'S of the contact in the postprocessing. How can sth. like this be done in…
Hello everyone, I am modelling a claw pole machine in Simlab. As you know, this type of machines have toroidal windings, which means that I will have the current run through the periodicity plane in my model. The results appear to be meaningful, but only up to a certain current. For very high current, they start to have no…
I connected myself with my Uni mail adress, but I can´t download HyperMesh. Has anyone the same issue ?
