Print/add more model data in .out file

Hi,

 

is it possible to add the center of gravity and mass moment of inertia as information to the .out file? In my .out file only volume and total mass fo the model are output.

Unfortunately - still after thorough checks - there is a mismatch between the volume and total mass which is computed via summary/moment of inertia template and the value in the .out file. That is why I expect a mismatch for the mass moment of inertia and center of gravity as well.

 

Kind regards

    Hi @msc

     

    Are you running any optimization problem?

     

    If yes, can you change the MATINIT to 1 from Optimization>> OptiControl and compare the mass and volume.

     

    By default the material fraction used at zeroth iteration is not 100% and one can change this to 100% through MATINIT.
