Transient animation output of every timestep

Ingeniorator

Hello everyone. After a transient analysis in Optistruct and performing the postprocessing in Hyperworks, how can you view or create an animation of the whole process from the initial model state to the last time step? For example in case of the Bar3.fem demo results, the Start/Pause Animation Button in HV only shows a linear interpolation of the movement from the initial state of the model to the end of the chosen time step, skipping every time step in between. How can one achieve an animation of the total movement with, for example, stress contour plots?

Hello,

When you realize a time dependency load-case, you need to adapt the type of animation :

-Modal animation for modal Analysis
-Transient animation for transient analysis
-Linear animation for linear analysis that créate a linear interpolation of the results

Does it answer to your question?

Best regards,

Arthur

Ah, sometimes things can be so easy and obvious. Thank you for your answer!
