ANALYSIS (file: monitor_bracket_loadstep.hm) Before starting the analysis it is recommended to save you model as a HyperMesh binary file: Then, in order to start the analysis go to: monitor_bracket_analysis.fem As the model was saved as a HyperMesh file before (monitor_bracket_analysis.hm), the same name and path is now used for the analysis. The file extension (*.fem) is automatically assigned. The run option is set to ”analysis”. Once the analysis is started a solver (solution) log file is being created. This file is named *.out. Take your time and view the *.out file for warnings, errors etc.. Some of the most common error messages and related debugging tips are discussed in the videos: Part I: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YBSLV4D5YIs Part II: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CilTIfUA1ZE 24 You may also find the following video helpful: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GSi686itNtc Once the information provided in the *.out file is evaluated, it is time to visualize the modeling results. 25
