Hi all
I am running batch files in the GUI. As often happens, something goes wrong, then you get the message "While processing.......an error has occured, should input be suspended?" or something like that. My question is, is there a way of knowing which command caused the failure? Sometimes...
Hi all,
I am wondering if anyone knows how to automatically named components in a *do loop?
For example, say you have a number of areas, and each area is meshed with shells. What I want to do is, inside a *do loop, automatically select the nodes from each area, then name it "areanodes1" for...
Hi everyone,
I have performed a nonlinear static analysis, then with the deformed results I want to do a modal analysis. The plan was to do a restart, but after having read a little more about restarts it says:
"The analysis type Antype cannot be changed if it is a restart run".
Does anyone...
Ok I don't really like posting general questions but I am a bit stuck so here goes anyway.
I am modelling a long thin balloon which is situated inside two hoops (imagine two rings on your finger, for example). Initially the balloon is not in contact with the hoops, because their radius is...
Dear All,
I am running an analysis where two surfaces contact, then are bonded on contact. This seems to be perfectly possible in Ansys. What I would then like to do is run a modal analysis on the bonded assembly, by a restart. Does anyone know if it is possible or impossible to do this? I have...

My questions are:
- Is there a way of...
