Hi,

 

I'm currently working on a Python script that calls MDS via the Command Line Interface. Since I'm interested in the thermoechanical properties of a unit cell, I'd like to see the CTEs in the output data. However, I haven't found a way in the user manual that enables 'Consider Thermal Expansion' in the command line like the checkbox in the GUI does. My current command line code looks like this:

 

 [Path to MDS exe] 1 03 [Path to mesh.dat] [Path to Lmatl_DD.dat] [Path to Lami.dat] 0

 

How do I have to adjust the command to receive output of the unit cell's CTEs?

 

Kind regards,

Max

    Hi, 

     

    A follow up question, is there a command to export the multiscale material model from the command line for specific solver. I see that its possible to export the homogenized linear characterization results but i couldnt find commands for full multiscale material model.

     

    Regards,

    SACHIN
