Re: Map initial deformation to mesh

Also, I was thinking on deforming the beam in an explicit subcase and then take the deformed mesh and stresses as a start for the second analysis (nl static) in which I would load the top of the beam. Would it be a better way to do it?

Bill,

Are you intending on including the initial stress/strain on the model, or just the deformed shape.

You can export the deformed shape directly out of Hyperview as a solver deck.

Or you can map displacement results to a model. (attached video)

However, if you want to include the initial stress/strain, you should do a NL continuation step or transient setup.

Re: Removing particles from the simulation in specific part of the geometry

Hi,

Thanks for sharing the tutorial.

I can't access the "Plug-in models" under "Physics" in my EDEM creator, do I need to activate them in EDEM somehow so I can use them?

Plug-in models in the tutorial file has "RemoveParticles" model

Regards,

Rahul.

I think it's covered in the API tutorials, but EDEM will look in the working directory and the locations specified under Tools->Options->File Locations, for plugins. Make sure you copy the .dll file and any other relevant files to whichever location you prefer.

Re: Altair Inspire® Challenge #6: Lilly Pad Optimization

Ok,

Here is my try:

1. basic

2. With Frequency Constraints

3. Topography optimation

4. With only 3 sectors in shape control

I like it, thank you for showcasing the different outcomes Karli!

Re: How to compute output power for electric generator in altair flux?

Hi Isiaka,

You can find the output power by finding power in each conductor that belongs to a particular phase and add the power from all phases to get total power.

You can get it by plotting the PowerP(conductor) on the 2D curve.

Thank you,

Lavanya

Re: Licenses for use in university laboratories

Hi Yadira - AI Studio free version can be installed for curriculum and non-confidential research work. This does require it to be licensed to each computer though. If your university would like to arrange a network license set up for lab computers then email me at dxf@altair.com, let me know the country you are in, if for class or research and I will make sure the right academic representative contacts you.
