About unit in NLGEOM analysis

Altair Forum User

Dear all

    We know when make NLGEOM analysis, we should set DTI_UNITS cards. But there are not ISO ton unit in there.

when define the material, we asign E, NU, and RHO. If I use  ton, N, and mm. The default DTI_UNITS are KG, N, mm and s.

how could I solve this conflict? Thanks!
