Notes

Import Type

Specifies the import type.

If Deformed Shape is selected, [analysis with deformed shape taken into account] can be performed.

If Initial Stress (Deformed shape included) is selected, [analysis with initial stress taken into account] can be performed.

If Initial Temperature is selected, thermal transient analysis can be performed with the imported temperature as an initial temperature.

An example is in Example: 20 Further Analysis with Saved Temperature Data (Transient Analysis).

If Initial Values for Fluid Analysis or Initial Values for Fluid-Thermal Analysis is selected, flow velocity, pressure, turbulent flow rate, and temperature can be used as the initial values for the fluid analysis and the fluid-thermal analysis.

If Heat Density (Loss Density) is selected, the thermal analysis can be performed with the imported heat density.

If Reached Temperature is selected, the stress analysis is executed with the imported temperature as a reached temperature.

An example is in [Stress Analysis Example 71].

If Pressure is selected, the stress analysis can be performed with the imported pressure as a boundary condition

An example is in [Stress Analysis Example 70].

If Restart Information is selected, the analysis can be continued following the imported results.

By selecting a mode, you can start over the analysis from the middle of the completed analysis with modified conditions.

The details are explained at [Multiphysics Analysis by Femtet].

Specify Result

Specify Analysis Model

Uses the result of the analysis model in the same project.

The analysis model is selected from the same project.

Specify pdt File

Specifies the results file directly.

Press Browse button to specify the pdt file.

Specify Mode

Specifies the result from the multiple results in the file.

Automatic (Use the last result)

Uses the last result.

Manual

Specifies the mode.

Input the mode number.

If the result exists, the mode number is automatically input by selecting the result from the list.

Mode number is shown at the left side of the result display.

Adjust Time

When importing the results of an transient analysis to the other transient analysis, the import mode (time) is automatically selected corresponding to the analysis time.

• Pressure and reached temperature are applicable.

Mesh Import

By selecting Use meshes of the imported results, meshes of the imported results are allowed for analysis.

• In some results imports, as the meshes of the analysis model and imported result are assumed to be the same,
  the results import may fail. If selected, the problem can be avoided.
  Take care of the results imports below:
  ・ Initial temperature/heat restart for coupled analysis
  ・ Initial values for Fluid analysis
  ・ Initial stress for stress-transient analysis or nonlinear analysis of piezoelectric-static analysis

• Meshes of the imported results are allowed for analysis if "None" is selected in the import type (the same effect as [Run Solver with Existing Meshes]).
  

• Boundary Conditions
  Mesh data includes the position information of the boundary conditions. Meshing determines the position of the boundary conditions.
  When importing and analyzing, boundary conditions such as force or electric wall can be basically modified.
  Some modified boundary conditions might not be applied. The modified periodic or discontinuous boundary conditions will not be applied.
  or discontinuous, because they are dependent on mesh information.
  

• Not available for the simple fluid-thermal analysis.
