Automated screenshots of loads contour

Fred_Juras

Overview

The script is a first draft. Although it can be used as is, some adjustments may be required for actual use.

Goal: to automate the screenshot of boundary conditions contour from HyperMesh.

How: First the script converts classical loads into engineering loads in order to use the tcl command "hm_ploatloads". Once screenshots are made, script converts back the loads into classical ones (even though it is an optional step).

Pre-Requisite

Have a model with classical loads organized in separated loadcols

 

 

Usage/Installation Instructions

1. Edit the script and adapt the output path at line 5 (directory to save screenshots)

2. Load your model in HyperMesh before running the script

3. Run the script
