    Femap API NASTRAN File Format

    I have an API provided by Siemens that writes out NASTRAN .bdf files from groups. However, it writes everything out in the large format. How can I modify the API to write out in the small format or is it a setting in Femap? When I export an analysis deck w/o using the API (File -> Export ->...

    Get Stored Material Data

    I'm writing a script to run in batch mode. I need to create a new material model based on an existing linear material model that's in the database. I know the existing model will have as a minimum EX(linear isotropic),NUXY,ALPX(secant-iso), and DENS defined at various temperatures but I don't...

    Turn Ansys Nonlinear Off

    Ansys 6.1 Only Solid95 and Solid92 elements with linear material properties. I previously had a much larger model with contact and nonlinear material properties. I've removed all of that and now the model should be running in linear mode but it continues to go into nonlinear solution mode...

    Turn Ansys Nonlinear Off

    I was running an Ansys model with nonlinear "features" using the nonlinear solution. I have carved out a portion of the model and removed all nonlinear "features" but when I solve it still runs in nonlinear mode. How do I turn nonlinear off such that I just run linear?
