    Please, make sure you have requested the nodal forces results

    how could i include NFORC Force/moments in Abaqus again?

    btw, does it work with Dyna output? i used to work with dyna more than Abaqus

    the help says it works only with Ansys, Nastran, OptiStruct and Abaqus.

     

    I'm not familiar to Abaqus solver, but i would say it is inside the output block options in the loadstep.

    i did try add the NFORC force/moments in abaqus, but it still has same error as no GFORCE results available...

     

    btw, a side topic,  how can I show the boundary condition, such as force, fixed node in Hypermesh so that when i present out, it shows clearly..

     

    not the manual approach...

    here is the model i want to give a trial

    if you can show me based on this model, that will be great.

    Yuyang,

     

    chiming in here and trying to give you some extra info:

    Issue with ABAQUS results:

    is your model by chance a pure solid one? There was an issue with HV FBD where the tool assume you always have Forces AND Moments. Latter ones are not available in NFORC output for ABAQUS (in solid models). 

    Showing Loads & BC:

    HV does not have this option (yet). For OptiStruct/Nastran/ABAQUS/Ansys you can use FBD tools in HM directly (suggest actually to use the aerospace FBD) to have the combination of displayed fbd + bcs

    DYNA FBD:

    We do not support LS-DYNA fbd workflow yet. That being said, and please, bear with my limited knowledge w.r.t. this specific solver profile, if I am correct, you may need defining *DATABASE_CROSS_SECTION and/o *DATABASE_SECFORC to get forces and moments at a cross-section (which I see missing in your master file)

    BTW: I hope you can share with us as well the results file from the model you sent.

    Hope this gives you more insights. 

    Thanks

    Michele
