Hello!

Is there any way to extract forces in CFAST connectors using student edition of the software? Unfortunately, it seems that CFAST elements are available for post-processing in HyperView only if the .fem file is loaded as a model. As a student I can only load .h3d files. Any help would be appreciated.

    Hello Rafal 

    You can request ELFORCE as output result request when you define your loadstep. Please make sure you check the output option when defining your loadstep.  This step will ensure that the element forces will be present as output an .h3d file.
