Use Flex Toolkit to convert MNF to MD DB Use can also use the mnf2mtx utility to convert MNF to MD DB. The usage is:adams flextk mnf2mtx source.mnf -O dest.MASTERwhere source.mnf is the mnf you want to convert and dest.MASTER is the Database name. If dest.MASTER exists, mnf2mtx will append the flexible body in source.mnf to dest.MASTER. So user can combine MNFs into one MD DB using mnf2mtx. For example, adams flextk mnf2mtx source1.mnf -O dest.MASTERthen adams flextk mnf2mtx source2.mnf -O dest.MASTERwill append the flexible body in source2.mnf to dest.MASTER with INDEX=2.相关主题PopupPopup另请参阅PopupTranslating FE Model Data Translating MSC.Nastran DataTranslating MSC.Nastran DataThere are two different interfaces that you use to translate MSC.Nastran data for use in Adams/Flex.

The new MSC.Nastran Adams Interface allows you to generate an MNF directly from MSC.Nastran without generating an OUTPUT2 file. The MSC.Nastran Adams Interface does not require a DMAP alter or a translator to convert MSC.Nastran output files to MNFs.The MSC.Nastran Adams Interface is a licensed feature of MSC.Nastran. For more information, contact your local sales representative. If you already have the MSC.Nastran Adams Interface license, refer to the MSC.Nastran Quick Reference Guide and Reference Manual for information on how to use it.Using MSC.Nastran 69.x, 70.x, or 2001Learn more about translating MSC.Nastran data using later versions of MSC.Nastran: About the MSC.Nastran DMAP and OUTPUT2 to MNF Translator Defining Your FE Model Running MSC.Nastran Running the Translator Technical Notes on the MSC.Nastran DMAPNote: Versions 69.x, 70.x, and 2001 of MSC.Nastran must be licensed to use the DMAP alters and run solution 103. MSC.VisualNastran for Windows does not meet these requirements.About the MSC.Nastran DMAP and OUTPUT2 to MNF Translator To generate a modal neutral file (MNF) in versions 69.x, 70.x, or 2001 of MSC.Nastran, you need: mnfx.alt - A solution sequence-independent DMAP alter. It directs MSC.Nastran to compute the data required for the MNF and write it to an OUTPUT2 file. Adams/Flex includes mnfx.alt DMAP in the Adams distribution. msc2mnf.exe - MSC.Nastran OUTPUT2 file to MNF translator. It is an executable translator that reads the MSC.Nastran OUTPUT2 file and writes MNFs.The mnfx.alt DMAP alter extracts flexible body information from MSC.Nastran. It uses the superelement techniques of component modal synthesis in MSC.Nastran to generate the flexible body information and output the data to a binary file, in full machine precision.The OUTPUT2 to MNF translator is based on the Adams MNF Toolkit, which you can configure to optimize the MNF. Defining Your FE ModelThe following outline the steps required to set up your MSC.Nastran input file to generate the necessary data for a modal neutral file (MNF).To set up your MSC.Nastran input file:1. Create a finite element model of the flexible body. The finite element model is defined in the Bulk Data Section. For more information, see the MSC.Nastran Quick Reference Guide.2. Set up an MSC.Nastran analysis of the model using one of the following solution sequences: SOL 103, 111, 112.3. Include a DTI, UNITS entry in the BULK DATA Section. Learn about setting units.4. Include the mnfx.alt DMAP alter distributed with Adams/Flex. You can obtain the file mnfx.alt from:install_dir/flex/examples/MSCNASTRAN/v69/mnfx.altinstall_dir/flex/examples/MSCNASTRAN/v70/mnfx.altinstall_dir/flex/examples/MSCNASTRAN/v70.7/mnfx.altinstall_dir/flex/examples/MSCNASTRAN/v2001/mnfx.alt5. In the File Management section of the MSC.Nastran input file, assign a file to be used as the output file and assign the file to unit 20. For example, enter the following to assign the output file test4.out to unit 20:assign output2=test4.out status=unknown unit=20 form=unformattedNote: Unit must be 20. The DMAP alter is hard-coded to use unit 20.6. To avoid data recovery on the residual structure, include the following in the BULK DATA section:param,fixedb,-1Note: Loads, boundary conditions, and output requests are not necessary to the extent they are in a conventional analysis.Running MSC.NastranYou execute MSC.Nastran using the command nastran (your system administrator can assign a different name to the command). You specify keywords with the nastran command to request options for how to execute the MSC.Nastran job.Formatnastran input.dat keyword_1 = value_1 keyword_2 = value_2 .where input.dat is the MSC.Nastran input file. Some common keywords are listed below. For information on keywords and their defaults, see the MSC.Nastran Installation and Operations Guide.Keyword DescriptionbatBatch submittal flag. bat = yes requests that the job is run in a batch or background process. (Default = yes)scrDatabase control flag. scr = yes requests that all data is stored in temporary database files and the database files deleted at the end of the run. This is recommended if disk storage is a concern. (Default = no)sdirScratch directory name. (The default is the temporary or scratch directory established by your system administrator). For large models, it is often necessary to set the scratch directory to a separate disk from where the assign statement in Step 5 of Defining Your FE Model directs the MSC.Nastran output file.Running the Translator Once youve generated an output file, you can run the translator, msc2mnf.exe, to generate the modal neutral file (MNF). You can run the translator: In a command window on any platform. Through the Adams/Flex Toolkit, which you access through Adams toolbar on UNIX and the Start Menu on Windows.For instructions about running the translator through the Adams/Flex toolkit, see Running the MSC.Nastran Translator. Before running the translator, be sure to set up the translation as explained in Setting Up Translation Options through the MNF Toolkit. To run the translator from the command window: Enter the following where file.out is the MSC.Nastran output file: msc2mnf.exe file.outFor example, enter: msc2mnf.exe test4.out Also, verify that the free body normal modes have a reasonable natural frequency. You should expect to see six rigid body modes, unless you fixed the DOFs with displacement boundary conditions. Technical Notes on MSC.Nastran DMAPThe next sections describe the DMAP alter in more detail and explain some optional parameters and settings that you might want to set before running a translation: More on DMAP Alter Optional Parameters You Can Set Setting Units More on DMAP Alter The MSC.Nastran DMAP alter is organized on a superelement-by-superelement basis so you can output multiple MNF files from a single MSC.Nastran job. The input requirement is that each Adams flexible component be its own superelement. By default, the alter automatically orthogonalizes component modes within MSC/Nastran before outputting the data to the intermediate output file. A case control subcase and corresponding eigenvalue extraction entry (for example, EIGRL) are not necessary for the orthogonalization. Adams skips the subsequent orthogonalization phase if it detects diagonal mass and stiffness matrix input. You can generate additional diagnostic output and send it to the *.f06 file by setting the parameter check to 1 (param, check,1 in BULK DATA). For more information on diagnostics, see Optional Parameters You Can Set. The information that the alter provides is: Units information, provided in a DTI entry. (For more information, see Setting Units.) Grid and element connectivity output to neutral file, eliminating the need for any *.f06 output to be read. Multiple coordinate systems because all quantities are transformed to the basic coordinate system prior to output. Flexible body data including the following, which is written to the intermediate output file: Grid data (BGPDT) Element connection data (ECT) Physical mass distribution (MGG) Orthogonalized Craig-Bampton component modes Generalized stiffness and generalized mass corresponding to the Craig-Bampton modes Modal loads (PAE) if specifiedNote that WTMASS has been removed from all output mass quantities (physical and generalized). Units data input to Adams is expected to resolve all potential discrepancies. Optional Parameters You Can Set You can set the following parameters in BULK DATA before translating the model using the param,name,value format: The option:Does the following:Orthonormalization rangeIn general, some of the Craig-Bampton modes in the flexible body will be of extremely high frequency, leading to potential ill-conditioning of the eigenvalue extraction problem. By default, the translator only uses those modes below 1.0e8 Hz, in addition to using the rigid body modes of the structure. The parameters v1ortho and v2ortho set the limits. They have default values of -1.0 and 1.0e8, respectively. You can change the values using the BULK DATA param statement. Orthonormalization diagnosticsYou can obtain orthonormalization diagnostic information by setting the parameter msglvl to any value from 0 to 4. For example, you can set it to 1: param, msglvl, 1 The default is 0. Additional diagnosticsYou can obtain additional diagnostic output by setting the parameter check to any nonzero value. For example, set it to: param, check, 1 The default is check,0, or no diagnostic output. For any models of realistic size, you should not set diagnostic output. Residual load vectorsYou can augment the component modes with a deformed mode of the residual load vector of each static load case. For example, set it to: param, resvec, yes The default is No.Element stress or strain modesYou can store element-based stress or strain modes in the MSC.Nastran output file by setting the parameter outstr to any nonzero value. For example, set it to: param, outstr, 1The default (0) is to store grid-based stress or strain modes. If you store element-based stress or strain modes in the output file, they will not be transferred to the MNF because the MNF supports only grid-point stress or strain modes. This option is useful if you want to recover element stresses or strains in, for example, MSC.Patran for an MSC.Fatigue analysis, and you are not interested in postprocessing stresses or strains in Adams.Setting Units Because Adams/View and Adams/Solver require units, you must specify units in MSC.Nastran data using a DTI BULK DATA entry that includes the unique identifier UNITS. When you specify the units, the units apply to all superelements in your model. The format of the DTI BULK DATA entry is shown next. The table below lists the appropriate unit labels. DTI UNITS 1 MASS FORCE LENGTH TIME For example, you can enter the following for units: DTI UNITS 1 KG N M SUnit LabelsFor: Enter the following: Unit: Abbreviation: Mass kilogram pound-mass slug gram ounce-mass kilopound-mass megagram kglbm slug gram ozm klbm mgg Force Newton pounds-force kilograms-force ounce-force dyne kilonewton kilopound-force millinewton n lbf kgf ozf dyne kn klbf mn Length kilometer meter centimeter millimeter mile foot inch km m cm mm mi ft in Time hour minute second millisecond h min s ms Note: Although you need the MSC.Nastrans WTMASS parameter to ensure consistent units in MSC.Nastran, MSC.Nastran ignores WTMASS when generating output for Adams/Flex. Instead, you supply units data for Adams/Flex using the DTI, UNITS entry, as explained earlier. For example, if you model mass in grams, force in Newtons, length in meters, and time in seconds, you set the WTMASS parameter to 0.001, ensuring that MSC.Nastran works with the consistent set of kg, N, and m. You then set the units for Adams/Flex by entering: DTI, UNITS, 1, GRAM, N, M, S On the other hand, if you model length in inches and force in pounds, you can enter the mass in slug units with WTMASS set to 0.083 (=1/12), or in units of pounds mass with WTMASS set to 2.588e-3 (=1/32.2/12=1/386.4). The DTI, UNITS choices for Adams/Flex are, therefore, either of the following: DTI, UNITS, 1, SLUG, LBF, IN, S DTI, UNITS, 1, LBM, LBF, IN, S Applying the WTMASS parameter directly to the mass (for example, specifying density in terms of 12slug/in*3) is not acceptable for Adams/Flex because 12slug is not a mass unit known to Adams.Verifying the Model The MSC.Nastran translator writes a summary of the modal neutral file (MNF) export to the terminal window. If you are using MSC.Nastran 2004 or above, the Adams interface writes a summary of the MNF export to the MSC.Nastran output file. Please review this data for any concerns. In particular, ensure that the: Mass, center of mass location, and moments of inertia are as expected. During the MNF write, the constraint modes and the constrained normal modes are orthogonalized. This yields modes that are: An approximation of the free-body normal modes. Interface modes, where the interface is the collection of all the attachment point DOFs.Also, verify that the free body normal modes have a reasonable natural frequency. You should expect to see six rigid-body modes, unless displacement boundary conditions are present. Computing MSC.Nastran Stress/Strain Modes For Adams/Durability to process stresses or strains on flexible bodies, modal stress or strain shapes need to be present in the modal neutral file (MNF) of the flexible body. You do this by having MSC.Nastran recover a stress or strain mode for every mode shape computed for Component Mode Synthesis (CMS). MSC.Nastran Grid Point Stresses Example Known Limitations, Problems, and RestrictionsMSC.Nastran Grid Point Stresses Because modal information contained in the MNF can only be associated with nodes, the MSC.Nastran grid-point stress data recovery option is required. The following Case Control commands are required in the MSC.Nastran input file to compute stress or strain modes for the MNF: GPSTRESS: Requests grid point stresses output. GPSTRAIN: Requests grid point strains output. STRESS(PLOT): Requests element stress output. STRAIN(FIBER,PLOT): Requests element strain output. OUTPUT(POST): Delimiter. SET: Defines a set of elements for a surface or volume. SURFACE: Defines a surface of plate elements referenced by the SET command. VOLUME: Defines a volume of solid elements referenced by the SET command.For more information on these commands, see the Case Control section of the MSC.visualNastran Quick Reference Guide. For more information on computing grid point stresses, see the MSC.Nastran Linear Static Analysis Users Guide.Note: You can only transfer one surface stress or strain fiber of plate elements to the MNF for processing in Adams. If more than one fiber is specified on the SURFACE card, the msc2mnf translator issues a warning message and only transfers the first surface stress fiber it finds in the OUTPUT2 file. Including stress or strain modes in the MNF can significantly increase the file size. Therefore, it becomes even more important to optimize the MNF if possible. For information on optimizing the MNF, see Optimizing an MNF or an MD DB. Including both stress and strain modes will further increase the size of the MNF and is generally not recommended for large models, unless both quantities are needed. When defining subcases in Case Control, you must have the GPSTRESS, GPSTRAIN, STRESS, and STRAIN cards before the first SUBCASE card. In addition, the OUTPUT, SURFACE, and VOLUME cards should follow all subcase definitions and appear at the end of the Case Control.Example Example above shows the changes that are required in the MSC.Nastran input file when the computation and transfer of both stress and strain modes are desired. Because the mode
