When I try to log in through Altair One, I get an invalid license error. I don't know why. This is strange, since the rest of my team had no problems accessing the software using this method.
Hello community, today i tried to follow some tutorials for SimLab with Flux for transient Simulations. Therefore it is needed to use the Circuit Designer to setup the Current Source. Unfortunately it is not possible to move, edit by double click, delete, wire or move the Circuit Components. Things I already tried without…
Hello, I am running a mixer simulation in Altair EDEM and I want to identify the high‑shear regions inside the mixer. Initially, I expected to use a particle‑level shear rate, but EDEM’s default particle outputs only include the following: Angular Velocity Compressive Force Coordination Number Diameter Frozen Kinetic…
Hello, My Altair AI Studio Education license had expired, so I submitted a renewal request. The academic support team verified my account for Student Edition use and directed me to the instructions at the following link: Since my account was already verified, I started from Step 2 and followed all the steps carefully — I…
Hi, in my EDEM simulation, i want to delete particles with particular IDs, which are read from a csv file. I have successfuly implemented this function in the cpu mode (delete particles in externalForce). But when I change to gpu mode, the particles cannot be deleted, and I do not know how to transfer the should be…

G'day all, Just looking for some assistance with the attached s-frame model. I am trying to assess a trailer chassis when raising a drilling mast. I have applied supports at ground level only. After running the analysis, for some reason I am getting reaction forces in the middle of the mast structure where there are no…
Guys, how to select HEXA elements by face. I can do it by menu, but how can I select these elements and add them to set using tcl script? Thank you!
old license ID 154979 was for one yr , Altair provide the above for 2 wks - not sufficient time . Mentor for FRC team w. a 2026 robot . Need complete analysis This is not a commercial , it is educational - Next at least a three month extension see attached Thanks l
Estimado equipo de Soporte de Altair, Soy un estudiante de la Universidad Politécnica de Madrid (UPM) y estoy teniendo problemas de licencia al intentar abrir Altair ESAComp 2020.

Hi all, I’m using Altair EDEM and would appreciate guidance on how to define surface energy for cross‑material contacts when using either EEPA or Hertz–Mindlin with JKR. Suppose I have two particle materials: A (surface energy = 5) and B (surface energy = 3) in consistent units (e.g., J/m²). For A–A and B–B contacts, I use…

I've encountered a problem. I have four assemblies, differing only in the thickness of one part; everything else is the same. I'm considering only meshing the part with the difference, importing the meshes from the first mesh and merging them with the meshes of the other parts, without re-meshing. Is this method feasible?…
I have a large model that is too complicated to mesh in its entirety and I want to isolate all of the geometry within a certain radius of a point and delete the rest. I am trying to create a script to automate this because there are a lot of separate geometries that would make this very tedious. I would like the script to…
