    Hi @NINAD

     

    Can you add OUTPUT>>H3D>>ALL>>By ITER to your model and check if that helps?

    Hi,

     

    Go to control cards>>OUTPUT>>H3D>>ALL>>By ITER add this and run the analysis. It should write a #.des.h3d file in your folder.

    Do you see any files with .h3d extension in your working directory?
