Hi,

I was analysing a non liner analysis for a chain hook

I had submitted the file to the RADIOSS solver

Problem i faced is

After writting a Animation file 0001

the solver repeatidly started writting a .rst file.

I kept the solver run for more than two hours

but before it could write Animation file 0002

it wrote many (aprx 15) .rst file.

Can any one tell why is it so and how can I avoid it or fix it.

regards

Paramveer Singh

    Please check your time step (could be too low)

    Hi,

     

    it seems either your rst. file dump interval is too small (control it by Engine-Keyword /RFILE),

     

    or your animation file dump interval is too big. (control via ANIM/...)
