FEM-analysis using NX NASTRAN - Can't access results after solving .sim [NX 7.0]

[nastynotion]

Hello everyone,

So I am trying to perform a simple FEM analysis of a very simple disc using NX NASTRAN in the advanced simulation environment. I make a tetrahedal mesh, assign material, add a constrain for a fixed area and add a load. But when I solve the simulation, everything seems to be in order but there are no results I can access after I run the solver.

I have attached the files in question in a .zip archive including the .txt log of the operation. There are also some photos regarding what I mean.

It says completed, but obviously it didn't run everything it was supposed to.

There should be some Result tab appearing here.

Thanks in advance, I hope that someone can help me with this.

Best Regards,

Lars

After finding this thread, I think this may be the problem.

I have to update my NX Nastran software as is experienced the famous April 1st, 2009 "Date Check" error.

But the link provided in that thread is expired. Can anyone provide where I can find this update?

Best Regards,

Lars

Does the redirect not take you here ?

Yes it does, thank you.

Apparently though that only applied to NX6, so I think it must be something else.

I read the .f06 file that the solve produced and this is what it says:
