FBD by scripting

Stéphane Combet

Hello,

Does somebody know the way to run the Free Body Diagram tool by scripting? It seems to me it does not write anything in mvw file.

This question was asked 5 years ago there with no answer.

Thanks!

Hello @Stéphane Combet ,

 

for FBD automation, we recommend to use the new FBD framework we introduced in HyperMesh new interface starting version 2021:

https://community.altair.com/community/en/free-body-diagram-fbd-in-hyperworks?id=kb_article&sysparm_article=KB0117466

 

With this framework, commands are recorded in command.tcl

 

Does that help?

 

Best Regards,

Michael

Hello Michael,

This is definitively the answer!

But, I need to investigate it... I never used the new interface before, so I just started.

Strange to me to post-process results in HyperView but it seems to be the way to have some tcl.

What if the model has been created and run yet, importing the h3d is okay? Because when I import a h3d (run with FBD/ALL in GLOBAL OUTPUT REQUEST card), in the Aerospace menu I don't have "Results".

Thank you...
