I want to check time step mesh information for explicit analysis. In 'check elements - time' after entering the desired time step and clicking 'check elems' I get the error 'No attributes defined in current template'. How to fix this?

    HI,

    Which HyperMesh version are you using?. Ensure material and property are assigned to the components.

    If possible please share the model file so that we can review the file.

    Hi,

    Your file is an OptiStruct model file.

    The Time subpanel to determine the approximate minimum time step works only for explicit solvers (RADIOSS user profile).

    Ok, I am using Optistruct with RADIOSS integration, so just switch to Hypermesh RADIOSS profile and check it?

    Hi,

    You will have to convert the OptiStruct model to RADIOSS (Tools>>Convert>>OptiStruct to RADIOSS block format) file and can check this.
