Hello, I have to simulate the mococoque of this years car of our Formula student team but have very limited Knowlegde about simulation.

We made only small changes like position of the forces and a smaller number of plys , so i wanted to try the Simulation of last years Monocoque. To understand the approach to this Problem.According to our former team member , which did the simulation last season, the Simulation should work without any problems when started. 

 

Here is what i did:

 

I started HyperMesh with the Optistruct User Profile and opened the .hm-file  . After that i klicked on Analysis =>Optistruct and selected the run option 'check'. After starting the Process  the Analysis stopped and showed me the Error Code 1000. I cant find any Hint what causes that error.

 

 

 

 

Can somebody give me a solution for this Problem

    Hi Paul Stechele

     

    Please provide allowable strain value in MAT8 card in order to use Strain theory as failure theory.

     

    Also, please check the Gravity cards. One of the cards is empty.
