I was curious if anyone has had any experience restarting an analysis using ADPL in ANSYS Mechanical 13.0

I have found the following code, but if I do a run then place this code in the Commands(ADPL) I get an error,

here is the ADPL I'm trying to use for restarting the run.


! Restart run:
/FILNAME,... ! Jobname
RESUME
/SOLU
ANTYPE,,REST ! Specify restart of previous analysis

Any suggestions?

Hello,
What is the error message you're getting?
At a guess I would say you need to tell ANSYS where to restart from
i.e. ANTYPE,,REST,1,1, would tell ANSYS to restart from load step 1, sub step 1.
I can't remember if ANSYS defaults to the last sub step of the last load step or whether you need to specify which load step and sub step. Can you attach your complete script of commands?
Cheers
George
