Hi
Is there any way to see the model convergence ?
Ansys displays a graphic during the model process that shows the process convergence. I can see when my model is starting to converge.
Does Abaqus do this ?
Thanks

RE: Convergence
Abaqus CAE User's Guide: 19.2.6 Monitoring the progress of an analysis job
RE: Convergence
But is there any way to check on the convergence while the job is running ? Just to see if going well or not ? Ansys do this in a graphic way while the job is running and i can see if my model is converging or not.
Is this related to the number of increments in step module ?
Thanks

You can also check the .dat file for warning messages that arise during pre-processing your model.

It´s supossed the sta file be generated during the running job ? While i´m running the job i check my files folder and no sta file there. I just found sta files in already completed jobs models.
RE: Convergence
If you launch your analysis in CAE, right click on the job in the model tree and select 'monitor'. The job monitor window will tell you if the analysis is running or if it has terminated/completed and you can access the .log, .dat, .sta and .msg output from the monitor window.

One more thing, i have a complex model, with 756 Mb Cae file.
Strange thing happened, i opened this file and i just modified one value (1KN Load to 1.1 KN Load), i went to assembly and i did Regenerate. Then i save the change. The cae file went to 1.65 Gb. This file has no job associated yet, just the inputs. Why does this happen ?
This was the only change, no geometry changes, no nothing, just 0.1 KN more !
Thanks

But as mentioned, the .sta is only generated, when no errors occur while processing your model definitions.
