Thanks for the advice. It is linear simulation, so we Will try to reduce the output variables. I have had no luck with paraview. Can you help me with the correct workflow for opeding pvd / vtu files? I get this error message in paraview: "ERROR: I…

No file outputs are requsted. But "Save after solve" is set. The model has about 450000 Nodes. I suppose step 1 is only an issue if preparing the model on the laptop. Because if we edit on the workstation, we would save it to a new file name "..._SO…

Hi Victor, this is not to 100% validated, but it seems that multiple solves are possible, whenever the second model is saved before starting to solve. Workflow that does not work: 1: prepare the models on laptop 2: open and start to solve model …

I'll try to to dig out some Images next week to clarify the stress components that are needed. Thanks for having a look into this!

Internal Solver. I was not very precise in my first post. Lets say I have a large model with two configurations. If I would "solve all configurations", Mecway would solve them one after the other and the Workstation is not at capacity. Theref…

Hi @Victor, Would it be possible to extend the stress linearization tool to process not only v. Mises and principal stresses but also xx, yy, zz stress components or even any stress component to be chosen by the user? This would enable Mecway to…

OK, thanks, I'll try how that works an large models.

Hi, thank you for solving the issue, the patch works fine.
-
Hi Victor, I'll try and report back.
-
Thanks for the Insight, interesting Video!

Hi all, over night the workstation was able to solve the large model in modal vibration! The it seems that Mecway on workstation can only solve shell models if * it has successfully solved any other model in the same Mecway instance. * if t…

I did have the licence deactivated on the Laptop. I'll try to reinstall as administrator tomorrow. Thanks for testing!
-
Hi disla, yes, mecway closes completely so that I have to reopen the program. The workstation is running on Windows 10 Pro, no virtual machine. The simple model is attached.
-
Hi again, I did try with a simple shell / laminate model just now. 230 nodes. Mecway closes during solving stage with no error message. It does so with laminate material and isotropic material with the internal solver. Using calculix works, …
-
Thanks for the hint regarding the working directory, I'll give it a try tomorrow with a simple model. Any Idea why the internal solver is only using one core? I thought it should be working on multiple cores?
-
Hello disla, thank you for your reply and the links! Sadly, I cannot share the model. I have solved a number of test case before (smaller models) on my notebook to do some validation on composites and everything was fine. Then I started modeling…

Hi everyone, same issue here, also Mecway 18, model with about 380k nodes crashes in modal analysis during "Assembling matrices" and in 3d static during "Applying constraints", both with internal solver using laminate material properties on quad8 an…

Hi all, Im new to Mecway and this post, among others, actually convinced me. Great work! Just a question concerning the tsai wu creterion. As far as I know, the interaction coefficient should be between -.5 and 0. Why did you choose to use f12*=1? …
