Dear All,

Can anyone please elaborate on how I can execute MD Nastran 2010 to solve for multiple .BDF files consecutively? I have about 10 .BDF files that need to run SOl 600 and would like to not have to manually start each job once the last one is completed?

Thanks in Advance
 
Hi

I found an old bat-file

C:\MSC.Software\MSC.Nastran_for_Windows\2005\MSC.Nastran\bin\nastran File1.DAT scr=no
C:\MSC.Software\MSC.Nastran_for_Windows\2005\MSC.Nastran\bin\nastran File2.DAT scr=no

You probably need to edit the adress for the executable and so on but I think you'll understand the idea.

It's old and I don't use MSC any more but I think it should work. But I can't be sure since I can't test it.

Good Luck

Thomas
 
Additional info

Change File1.dat to File 1.dbf

I missed that important info.
