Hello, 

 

is there a way to select/delete the duplicate loads? In my case, I created some 'temp' loads (nastran profile) and the solver stopped because of this.

 

Thank you for your time.

    Hi,

     

    Are these temp loads are in same load collector of actual loads?

    Hi,

     

    All loads are in the same load collector. these were created in different load collectors because the temperature was different and I moved all loads into the same load collector because I need a single load collector with all loads together.

     

    Thank you for your time.

    Hello everybody,

     

    The only solution I have found was to recreate the loads by considering node sets with all common nodes in order to avoid the selection of common nodes and generate duplicate loads.

     

    Thank you.

    Hello,

    could you try deleting temp loads by F2>loads>by config 'temp' ?

    Hello,

     

    My problem was not how to delete the 'temp' loads (temperatures).

    There were a lot of duplicate loads (about 3000 loads). Is not so easy to delete loads 'temp' when you have about one million nodes with loads attached (my computer moves too slow).

    I have recreated the loads and this took me little time comparing with situation of find the duplicates and delete them.

    Thank you tinh.

    Hello!

    Thank you for this thread. Has anything changed during the recent years and in new versions of hypermesh to make finding duplicated temp loads more easily?

    Best regards
