Hello, I recently formatted my computer, trying to install the PSIM student version again finding errors with the license. I tried to disable the license through Altair License Utility but it has an error and in the folder there is no license files.
I am checking an L wall. When I check it with ACI 2019 I overwrite omega to be 1. When I compare the results with ACI 2014 I get higher DCRs in shear when I use ACI 2014 by about 35%. Looking at calculation the program provides, it seems the reason is that when teh program uses ACI 2014 the tension on the leg is higher and…
Is Altair Radioss suitable for modeling soil-tool interaction using Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH)?
Query to apply Bushing or Complant for Fixed Joint in MotionView/MotionSolve I want to input a damping ratio for a fixed joint or bushing in motionsolve. However, there is no space for inputting a damping ratio, and I need to input a damping coefficient. I would like to know the approach used to calculate the damping…
When I use hyper study to optimize the edem stacking angle, ' qt.qpa.plugin : Could not find the Qt platform plugin ' windows 'in ', ' This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem. And the red area of the photo should appear a.csv…
Description: I am working on a structural analysis for a expansion tank and I created 3 RBE(following the tutorial) to give constraints like fixing points. But the result is that the tank is not properly fixed. What is the possible cause for this? is it because the bad meshing near the fixing points maybe? I don't know.
Are there any extra education content if ı would reach the Hyperwork full packet. I cannot learn everything from SimLab student version's education package
Hi, I'm doing a time-dependent heat transfer analysis in HyperMesh 2024.1. I need to define time-dependent convection. Instead of using CONVG, I'm defining CONVECTION. I entered the ambient temperatures using time-dependent SPC, SPCD, TABLED1 and TLOAD1. However, I'm not sure how to define the PCONV for a transient heat…
Overview This python script computes the temporal evolution of the Lacey mixing index [1] for a binary mixture of particles in EDEM from the mixture component mass fractions in a dense grid of rectilinear sampling bins as described below. An example result from the script is shown in Figure 1. A value of zero corresponds…
In this tutorial, learn how to create motor parts in FluxMotor using sketches directly from SimLab Sketcher. This process is ideal for customizing components like rotor bars, stator slots, end caps, and housings with precision and flexibility—accelerating motor development with multiphysics integration.
모션솔브에서 고정 조인트나 부싱의 감쇠비를 입력하고 싶습니다. 하지만 감쇠비를 입력할 공간이 없어서 감쇠 계수를 입력해야 합니다. 다물체 동역학 소프트웨어에서 감쇠 계수를 계산하는 방법이나 감쇠비를 입력하는 방법을 알고 싶습니다. (또한 타워 등의 구조 감쇠를 입력할 때는 감쇠비만 입력할 수 있었습니다.) 감쇠 계수를 계산하려면 질량과 고유 진동수를 알아야 하는데, 조인트에 적용되는 컴플랜트나 부싱에 어떤 질량과 고유 진동수를 입력해야 하는지 모르겠습니다. (전체 시스템의 각 방향의 첫 번째 모드인가요? 두 번째 모드인가요? 아니면 연결된 두 요소 사이의 모드인가요? 질량은…
Good afternoon, I have completed the course Getting Started with SimSolid, however, I did not receive a certificate of attendence. Thanks, Danilo
Hello everyone. I am currently trying to replicate the NACA0012 tutorial but with my own geometry file, since I would like then to use this method in other simulations. It seems that I am able to mesh the geometry correctly and apply the extrusion method in order to perform a 2D simulation. But when running the simulation…
I simulated the casting as a single figure. I checked its porosity. My question is, based on which values should I choose a feeder?
Hello everyone, When trying to install Altair License Manager onto a Linux server running RHEL 8, it prompts me with this: This issue is that I am logged in as root when running the .bin installer. I ensured the exec permissions were correct as well. Not sure how to proceed since I haven't found anyone with a similar…
Hello Altair Community, I'm hoping for some help with a launch issue for the Student Edition of FluxMotor 2025.1. When I run FluxMotor, the splash screen appears and stays there. The process is running in the Task Manager with very low CPU/Memory usage, but the main application window never opens. I have to use the Task…
Hello, I am supporting a customer to model one of our products in Optistruct. I don't have a valid license and created the model only based on the OptiStruct manual. The customer reported a problems to do that. Would it be possible for somebody to import the attached models (two diferent versions) in the software to check…
My AI studio is properly downloaded, but can not access the contents of any folder on my computer. This is a significant issue, and any solution would be greatly appreciated.
Hello, I am trying to run a thermal simulation in SimLab Electronics Thermal. For some reason, both the thermal and CFD convergences reach 100%, but the Heat Balance remains stuck at 0%, even after 500 iterations in the log file. My initial setup is quite simple: I am simulating a semiconductor module mounted on a heatsink…
