Hello,
I am trying to run a large nastran job (16272552 DOFs). My computer has 32 Gb RAM and 900 Gb of free HDD space. When excecuting, the scratch file created is quite large (143 Gb) and for some reason, the solution just freezes without warnings. I have found documentation about keywords of memory, maxmemory etc, but I cant quite figure out how to use them based on my PC.
I have also noticed some that are made specifically for cases of large scratch files, such as the scratch mini setting. Do these "simplifications" reduce the accuracy of the results?
Thanks in advance
Josef K.
