Nastran simulation- NO Results

Nastran simulation- NO Results

Nastran simulation- NO Results

(OP)
i have followed a given tutorial in NX6 documentation. i did all the steps correct and solved it.. and NX showed it was completed. but then when i go to post-processing navigator.. it don't show any results where it should show according to the documentation.. pls help.. how to see this results.

RE: Nastran simulation- NO Results

Check the directory in which you did the simulation for the existence of *.f06 file.  The f06 is a text file which, if the simulation succeeded, will contain the results output.  If the simulation didn't succeed, the f06 file might be blank, or might contain a message indicating why it failed.

RE: Nastran simulation- NO Results

which version and maintenance pack of NX6 are you using?  64-bit or 32-bit?

RE: Nastran simulation- NO Results

Dear NX6loader,
You have to update your NX Nastran software as is experienced the famous April 1st, 2009 "Date Check" error.
Siemens PLM has resolved the problem with a software patch that changes a binary integer value and in effect changes the date check algorithm to allow the program initialization to proceed.

Patch can be downloaded from http://ftp.ugs.com (you will need a valid WEBKEY), check your local GTAC for assistance.

Best regards,
Blas.
