Restart a non-linear quasi-static analysis from a loadstep different from the first one

Altair Forum User

Hi everyone,

I'm doing a nonlinear quasi-static analysis (NLSTAT) composed of two loadstep. Usually I make modification on BC applied to the 2nd loadstep. It is possible to restart this analysis from the second loadstep instaed of restarting the complete analysis?

 

thanks,

Hi Luke31,

 

I don't think it is possible to restart a NLSTAT subcase. But if you are running NLGEOM use NLRESTART to restart the analysis.

 

Refer to NLRESTART in OptiStruct help for more information.
