Running Scripted Simulation with Quasi-Static Analysis Type

tonynguyen_1432

In MotionSolve, when using scripted simulation, I want to run a quasi-static analysis. However, when I replace analysis_type="Transient" with analysis_type="QuasiStatic" in the analysis_type, the solver still behaves like a transient simulation. What is the correct way to set up a quasi-static analysis in scripted simulation?

Thank you in advanced!

Hi @tonynguyen_1432 ,

The correct way to set up a quasi-static event via template is to run a static event with an end time and print interval.

For example:

<Simulate
analysis_type = "Static"
end_time = "6."
print_interval = "0.01"
/>

If you only have Static, then the solver will run a static event.
