Hi all,

 

How to calculate how much force required as a final output in the implicit nonlinear analysis (Optistruct)?

    Use the SPCFORCE command in the I/O options section of the input data:

     

    Analysis>ControlCards>Global_Output_Request

     

    With this command, loads are written to the .spcf file, an ASCII format results file. Loads are also written to the binary .res and .h3d files (if these formats are selected) and these result formats can be viewed graphically. Additionally, if the .spcf file is written, the reaction force summary, the load summary, and the strain energy residuals for each load case are written to the .out file.

    Hi Ivan,

     

    Not able to generate the .spcf file. Could you share any deck file regarding SPC Force calculation and output request?

    For Hypergraph results request HM format (.res file)

    For .spc file request OPTI format.

    For Hyperview request H3D format.
