The optistruct template generates OptiStruct input decks.

The optistructlf template generates OptiStruct input decks using the long format for CELAS, CONM2, FORCE, GRID, MAT1, MAT2, MAT8, MAT9, MOMENT, MPC, PBEAM, PBEAML, PCOMP, PCOMPG, PBARL, PROD, and PSHELL bulk data entries.

DVGRID bulk data entries are written in long format with both templates.

All settings necessary to interface with OptiStruct can be loaded by loading the OptiStruct user profile.

The following summary templates are available for OptiStruct:

Template

Description

components

Summarizes the name, number, material, mass, and number of elements for each component in the current HyperMesh database.

constraints

Summarizes the name, number, response, lower, and upper bounds for each constraint in an optimization problem defined in the current HyperMesh database.

ctr of gravity

Calculates the center of gravity of the model.

elements

Summarizes the number of each element type in the current HyperMesh database.

loads

Summarizes the forces and moments applied to the current model.

mom of inertia

The mom_of_inertia template calculates the moments of inertia of the model.  The mass moment of inertia of the entire model is presented in matrix format.

errorcheck

Summarizes the model errors.

responses

Summarizes the name and type of responses in an optimization problem defined in the current HyperMesh database.
