Hi,

for getting youngs modulus value we will use E, similarly to get NSM value what should to use...

ex: [hm_getentityvalue comps 63250003 \$E 0 -byid]

this will give the youngs modulus value,

similarly i need to get [NSM] - (non-structural mass) value for the same id (63250003) what i have to use in place of 'E'.

Regards

    Hi,

    May I know which solver template you are loaded.

    The keyword for obtaining attribute value from HM varies according to solver.

    I guess you are using Nastran template.

    So,

    hm_getentityvalue props $id '\$PCOMP_NSM' 0

    gives you nsm value. But before executing this command youshould check whether PCOMP is cardimage used for passed prop id or not.

    Thanks
