Load an APDL macro in ANSYS

Load an APDL macro in ANSYS

Load an APDL macro in ANSYS

(OP)
Hi, I am doing some research in fatigue crack modeling. I am using ansys and Matlab interface. But now I have a problem i can't load a .inp file on ansys, when the the solution is done for example.

What I'am doing now it's save de job em .db close ansys and them laod a new .inp file in which I load the information of the .db file, and them what i want to do.

So I want to improve this process i don't want to save and open the job again i want to load the information that i have in apdl without starting ansys again.

I look forward to hearing from you soon,

Best wishes Bruno Serrano
 

RE: Load an APDL macro in ANSYS

What i understand u can use "Clear and start new" option .. i forgot where it is in the menu :) .. oops!!

It clears all the data in memory (in simple refresh ANSYS) so u dont have to restart .

RE: Load an APDL macro in ANSYS

My APDL files always start with

finish
/clear

! and then the standard parameters:

*afun,rad
pi=4*atan(1)
*afun,deg                              


! and then a convenience button
*abbr,start,/INPUT,'input','inp',,, 1
