How to get material data in Hyperview

Hi 

 

I wanted to get material data in Hyperview using script. How to get information in Hyperview by scripts. 

 

I tried using open this script in Altair knowledge base but this script is not appearing.

Why looking for INPUT data with Post-processing (Hyperview) software?

I want to plot FOS legend in HV.  Material yield limit is provided in MAT1 card, so i need to get that yield limit, after that i can get FOS by dividing max stress / yield limit.

If it us OptiStruct, there is a FOS output in newer versions.

In HV you could just create a derived result creating a mth expression.

I believe there's an example exacc8 for FOS in HV tutorials.

You would need an XML file with the allowables.

Hope this helps you.

Hi Adirano,

 

Solver profile is Nastran, it wont support shell and solid elements to create FOS. Currently it supports 1D elements and fatigue simulations. I am running linear static SOL 101 this is problem. So i need to do scripting to extract FOS.

In HV it won't use the allowables in your material.

But, as I've mentioned before, you could get this by loading your .dat and .op2 results, with 'Advanced Math' template.

Then create a new result in DERIVED RESULTS(MATH).

There you can add a resource such as a XML file with Id and allowables, and then create an expression.

There's a tutorial in HV training material, that probably you find in youtube or under tutorials in the help.

A small part can be seen here.

 

In your case you will need to check if allowable can be mapped to your elements, and the create some expression such as 1-(T1/allowable)

Thank you so much @Adriano A. Koga for very useful information
