coupling heat transfer (transient) analysis and direct dynamic analysis

Altair Forum User

Hi,

Is that possible to couple heat transfer (transient) analysis and direct dynamic analysis? I tried to execute the same procedure indicated in OS-1080: Couple Linear Heat Transfer/ Structure Analysis, but it doesn't work, due to an unsupported subcase (I wrote 'TEMP=1' for the SUBCASE_UNSUPPORTED like in the tutorial).

Thank you for your help.

From your model it seems like you have contacts defined.In OptiStruct, Non-linear steady state is supported but not non-linear transient.Check user guide for detailed information.
