uniform percentage of load factor results in optistruct Non linear anlaysis

Mani kumar_21615

I am running in a Non linear Analysis in Optistruct .I found the load factor results as below...But i want the load factor results uniformly like 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5 ....1.0..Can you help me out how to get it?

Hi,

Make sure the you defined number of load step as per your desired output.

LOADADD is used for adding multiple loads...see my question once again

Hi @Mani kumar

 

Include NLOUT in your model file

The NLOUT entry can be used in the Subcase Information section to select the incremental result output parameters used for Nonlinear Static Analysis and Nonlinear Transient Analysis

I know this i need equal interval of load steps like 10%,20%...so on

even the above like show not equal intervals.
