Dear all,
my .f06 file contains the element and plies that have failed using the TSAI WU criterion. However my model has more than 3000 elements. How can I import those results containing the failed elements so I can group them and viwe them?
Cheers

Dear all,
I want to find the failure indices using the Tsai-Wu criterion. I found out that with my version of Patran that is not supported(I have 2000.0 version). However I found in the Solutions Web site of Patrans technical support, a DMAP ALTERS that computes the indices. However, I put the...
Dear all,
I have a rather large model, in which I apply a force , and I get a maximum displacement. Any suggestions on how I can calculate the stiffness of my FE model, so I can do a stiffness optimization?
Any help?

By applying only a concetrated mass does this result automatically in application of a force at a single point? I inserted the mass property for the conm2 element from the property set card. But when I view the results and the reaction forces, it seems that the solution doesn't consider the...
hi all
I want to simulate the weight of a structure using concetrated mass at certain points of the mesh. However I am not so sure whether by applying inertial load over the entire model, by this way nastran takes under consideration the weight at those points. The procedure I used was teh...
hi all, I am hyperen and I am new in PATRAN/NASTRAN.
I am running a simple linear analysis, on a not so simple winglet!
However I get the following fatal message and so no .op2 file is written:
