Hello dear all! I am supposed to have licenses for fundemental altair products through my univesity. They do work to some extent, because i could log into the marketplace and download Hypermesh, but when it came to activating the Programm it wouldn't let me. When I start the programm, a License Setup Window appears and…
Hi! can anyone tell me the way to add ribs in hypermesh? my case is that I have created one midmesh of an expansion tank and the next step for me is to try to add some ribs inside to find out the best option but now I have difficulty connecting ribs and the outer surface. I have used exend and creat surface then mesh it,…
I performed a simulation of lifting a plate using two cylinders. When the plate was modeled as a Rigid Body, the results showed that force appeared only in one cylinder, and its magnitude was nearly twice the force obtained in the flexible-body case. Therefore, I chose the flexible-body model because it provides a more…
동아리지원프로그램을 작년까지 사용하다가 올해 학생용 라이센스 받아서 이어서 할려고 하는데 작년에 받아와졌던 Step 파일이랑 parasolid파일 등등을 불러올려고 하는데 불러오기를 실패하는거 같아요. 불러오는데 왼쪽 밑에 loading 창에 아무것도 안뜨다가 갑자기 끝난것처럼 되는데 model에는 아무것도 없고 새파일을 만들려고 하면 저장하겠냐고 알림이 뜹니다..
Hello, im heaving trouble trying to do a EDEM coupling simulation using altair access HPC. The simulation runs with no problem in the local run, but when i try to use the HPC i got a error message saying that the end time is not specified. I already tryied to export the simulation in python and xml, but none solved the…
Hi there, Im taking a finite element class and I made a mesh in the student edition of hypermesh, but I cant seem to export it to an LS Dyna K file. Could you help please? Thank you
Hello, I do not understand well to what extent FEKO supports the GPU with MoM (SEP). I can see on the official website it is supported, but trying to run FEKO with GPU warn me that parallel computation is not supported with GPU. So I've set the number of process to one, but now it is awfully slow. I see in the log that GPU…
Hello, I am trying to obtain the total current that goes through a plane in my structure, as shown below : I've found the .out and .os files where currents are saved, but I have them sorted by label (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, …), and not by geometry, even if I see that the coordinates are written. 1. What is the "good" method to…
Hello everyone, I am using HyperMesh CFD for the first time and I have encountered the issue shown in the attached picture. My boundary layer, generated by the 'Edge Layer' tool, gets cut off when it intersects with the edge of a mesh refinement box. I am looking for help to ensure my boundary layer remains continuous.…
https://us.v-cdn.net/6038102/uploads/8DJYE1W0BZ0B/cbush-orientation.tcl Overview: If you have many CBUSH elements with the same orientation, this is easy to define, but if each CBUSH has a different orientation, you will need to define as many CBUSH elements as you have. This script automatically assigns the length…
If I run the script at the bottom in Flux2D via the PyFlux Command prompt, a curve is made with the name "CURVE_LOSS_REGION_V101". If I extract the curve, I obtain the data I need. If I embed this piece of code in a Python script, the code runs smoothly and the script is ran without errors. However, the actual curve is not…
The "wheel arch" function generate the twist polynurbs. I don't know how to fix it . Thanks
When I used imposed current with a parametrized current that should change over time, the current does not update over the rotation. It does with a circuit tho. When I go on solver settings→ Results request and a circuit is defined in my case, the software crashes. It does not crush if the current is given through the…
Hi, I have a surface velocity data of E-motor/Engine generated by third party MBD solver in .pch file format. I would like to use this data as a excitation to predict the exterior noise at 1m distance microphones. I have looked at the documentation of IE, RADSND & APML methods in optistruct. Surface velocity required for…
Hi We are exploring Inspire tool to do a comparison study b/w Inspire- optistruct and hm-optistruct. We considered simple analysis like modal and gravity for the study. But we observed discrepancy in the results. So need help in model set up . thanks
