Hey, I have tried to do a test run on my model in Optistruct and I have encountered this message. *** ERROR # 41 *** CBAR 1525774 has an invalid orientation vector (zero length or parallel to the element axis). I have looked up that specific element but i cannot find the issue. Furthermore the element is not even a CBAR…
Hi everyone, I am currently working on a project in which I have to do a Stress Analysis on a model which is globally accelerated. The acceleration can be considered as quasi static in my case. I am using Optistruct for this analysis. My plan was to use the accels in the Analysis subpanel but I don't really know how to…
I have residual stresses results from an explicit laser peening simulation run in Abaqus. I would like to take these results and map them to a coarser model in Hyperworks X (currently 2019 version, will be using 2020 soon) to be used as a pre-stress condition for a subsequent linear static analysis. I've started with a…
