How to calculate total mass in Hypermesh - Structural and non structural

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,
