Hello,

Hypermesh mass Calculate only sums up Structural mass. Everytime do a 1 ms run to get total mass ( structural + Non Structural and added mass).

Is there a way to get this from Hypermesh preprocessor itself?

    Hello Prabhu,

    I tried that, but looking for something where I can calculate the total mass of the full model or include. That helps to play around how much mass I need to add to do quick mass balance.

    But appreciate a quick help.

    Thanks & Regards,

    There is a Mass option in the Validate ribbon also. Below is a link to the help page with the restrictions of this tool.
