Transform feature in Radioss

Hello,

 

Do we have to add additional cards along with TRANSFORM card to have components in right position during the simulation. While setting up in the Hypermesh its in right position but in H3D added include is in its native location. Also, got few translation transform cards in standalone include and few Transforms in Main file.

I am using scaling and translation in standalone include and bunch of translation and rotation in main file. But its in proper location when I open main file in hypermesh.

Regards,

    Best practice is you should apply your transforms to //SUBMODEL only, not to node sets, node set transformations can be unreliable depending on the order they are processed in etc

    Hello Paul,

     

    Thank you for a quick reply. Any chance you got any examples to use //SUBMODEL and //SUBSET along with transform card to reposition subassemblies in the main model ?
