sometimes we can not read Marc Mentat t16 result file; we can not get the same stress/strain between HV and Mentat; without Linear Extrapolation in HV, but linear extrapolation is default for Mentat.

    Hi,

     

     

    Please let us know the version.

     

    HyperView supports MARC t16 files for version 2008 r1.

    I use Marc Mentat 2014, the lastest version. but I think Version is not problem.

     

    The h3d file by HvTrans will give different stress results back compared to Mentat Results if you read it in directly -due to Different node averaging, the same problem in HV. But I need to convert the t16 file into same results for H3d compared to Mentat.

     

    Another issue is that HV can not read all element types from T16 and prints out error message.

     

    I know that somebody build a h3d converter for t16, based on HvTrans. I hope it can be shared.

    Hi all,

    Are there any news about this topic? I've been using Marc Mentat 2021 but the same issue cropped up. In detail, i'm using hyperview and the problem is with linear extrapolation as abovementioned ( default for Marc Mentat). Method translate showed same results but there is an underestimation of stress value. Has Anyone figured out a solution?
