In HyperView you can transform stress results to any coordinate system following certain system projection rules. You also can calculate
the stress average using various averaging schemes, and have control over which stresses should be averaged.
AcuSolve results for steady state, transient and moving/deforming mesh analyses can be imported and post-processed using the AcuSolve Reader (*.log) in HyperView.
The Nastran XDB Results Reader can be customized by using
the Reader Options dialog in the Load Model panel.
The Reader Options dialog partially creates an environment variable in
the background. If such a variable is already set, the dialog will read the variable while
opening.
Supported Options
Extrapolate or Interpolate element results for unavailable output
Depending upon the output requested, Nastran XDB files
may contain only centroidal or corner results. Because of this, you may not be able to
view corner results when only centroidal results are available, and vice-versa.
This option enables HyperView to support corner results
when only centroid results are available by extrapolation. (As of today the centroidal
values are just snapped to the corner nodes)
It also supports centroidal results when only corner results are available by
interpolation. (Simple linear averaging is used for interpolation.)
It is important to note that this option doesn’t modify the original results. It
just provides the ability to post process results on locations where results are not
available in the XDB file.
FALSE (default)
Don’t support these variations, and only provide the results which are
actually available with the result file.
TRUE
Use this option to view corner results when centroidal results are not
available, and vice-versa.
Optimize XDB file loading
This option enables the XDB reader to keep the file in memory - even after it is
closed - until a new file is opened. This improves the performance of multiple opening
and closing operations on the same file.
If you reopen the same file with modified contents, the XDB reader reloads the file
in this instance (Example: A recent solver run that overwrites the file
contents).
It also enables efficient file reading, by reading the contents only once.
FALSE (default)
The optimizations are turned off. by which the file and the associated memory
are released as soon as the file is closed.
TRUE
The optimizations are turned on, by which the file contents are kept in memory
until another file is opened. Use this option when you want to load the same
file multiple times.
Load design cycle for model and result
By definition the model can differ across design cycles. In HyperView the model information is always read once. Due to this
restriction, you can choose either the first or last design cycle for loading the
initial model. For a given model HyperView has the ability
to results for all design cycles.
This option enables HyperView to support design cycles
and provide meaningful combinations of model and results.
Initial Model and all Results (default)
Model information is loaded from the first design cycle. The results are
available for all the design cycles.
Last Model and all Results
Model information is loaded from the last design cycle. The results are
available for all the design cycles
Initial Model and First Results
Both model and results information are loaded from the first design
cycle.
Last Model and last Results
Both model and results information are loaded from the last design cycle.
Note:
Support of 1D Element Forces (v) with Corner Data in XDB files.
Support of CSHEAR and CBEAM results as corner data in XDB.
