Any help would be great! Thanks, Neel Chudasama

    No I didn't but this is what kept popping up when I tried to follow instructions and open a h3d file in hyperview. Even if i ignored this message log nothing seemed o happen when I continued with the instructions.

    From Screenshot which you shared says file generated in 14.0. Please check graphic driver detail & update it.

    I able to post process same file in Student edition HV also. I recommend you to check with other H3d file in HV. If everything dont work then just reinstall Student edition once again and check.

    Hi Rahul I have uninstalled and reinstalled hyperworks and it seems to be able to load the h3d file but the message log still comes up with a warning? and when I follow the instructions of the tutorial further and click on the contour button and try to look at results type only three options are available? Composite stresses or the other options which are shown in the tutorial do not come up. I have attached the relevant screenshots in your dropbox.

    Hi,

     

    Please include CFAILURE card in your model setup. Since 13.0 all output control to results for composite is done through CFAILURE.
