I have an analysis I'd like to export to be run in NASTRAN, but SW won't export it - just hangs on the export screen. I'm able to export to PATRAN and ANSYS (both unverified within their respective programs) but even running the cos2nas.exe outside of SW does not work. Does anyone have tips/tricks on this?
Thanks!
So the problem only happens on one specific assy/part?
Sorry on the late response, but wanted to try a few things for comparison. Smaller test parts seemed to work okay, a larger thermal model gave an error at least, but the model in question does not even do that, even after sitting on the export screen for 2+ days. I've been told the ANSYS export of said file was junk as well, only wrote a few initial lines. The PATRAN export didn't include material properties for the only two materials used.
Version and sp?
See second post, though I've updated and tried with SP3.0 by now with same results.
Report to reseller. Of the process isn't running, sounds like a bug where something is getting stuck writing the file. I'd try isolating if you can .
Forgot to add I'm running SW14 SP2.0, exporting NL sim on a part file.
