Problem was solved. It is possible to run N instances of Ansys Mechanical at the same time to speed up calculations as long as you have N licenses.
The problem was that I made a mistake: both input files (my_job_A.txt and my_job_B.txt) used the same working directory. There was a CWD ansys...
Hello experts,
I´m trying to model in ANSYS Mechanical (v14.5) the linear buckling behavior of a cylinder under combined loading (axial compression plus some torque) applied at the ends.
How should I set up the boundary conditions of a cylinder to keep rigid the ends while allowing their...
I also tried to run two different jobs at the same time in different terminals that used a different working directory. Unforutnately one of them crashes (windows alerts that Ansys stopped working) while the other finishes normally. Note that to avoid Ansys-lock-related problems I set the Ansys´...
