    NASTRAN - removing beep

    Are there any keywords which can be used in NASTRAN to avoid having it beep whenever a run completes? I am running a laptop at work with a very loud system speaker, which I can't disable since I don't have administrator rights. Thanks

    linear vs. non - linear analysis

    Good link, thanks! What I had heard considered only material plasticity as the factor for when to switch to a non-linear analysis, so it is good to know about the other effects. A linear analysis seems to be possible anyway though by reducing the material properties by a factor (approximating...

    linear vs. non - linear analysis

    Are there any general guidelines as to when to use a non-linear analysis vs. a linear analysis? I don't mean code specific or structure specific...for example if your out of plane deflection exceeds x percent of your part thickness, things of that nature. Thanks

    Nastran MPC Forces - how to list?

    Hello, I am currently trying to output MPC forces at an RBE2 element in one of my models. In the Analysis->Case Control window I have activated both the MPC force and the Constraint eqns option. When I try to list the output selecting Nastran MPC forces no values are generated. I am still...
