    Hi,

    Thank you very much for your answer. I try to export it as you suggested. In the screenshot below, you can see my only available options, although the Nastran profile selected.

    With the HyperMesh student version, you can only export models to Altair solvers, such as OptiStruct, Radioss, and Feko. To export models to other solvers, a commercial license is required.

    Hello,

    Thanks for your answer. My friend installed Hypermesh student also, but she is able to export Nastran files. Is there any document that shows student account limitations?

    Does anybody knows how to fix it in my case?

    Hi,
    This information is correct: for the Student version, only Altair solvers are available for exporting. Look for the topic "Product Limitation in the Student Edition": https://web.altair.com/altair-student-edition#license-activation
