The .#.h3d files are compressed binary files, containing model, analysis, and optimization result data. They can be used to post-process results in HyperView or when using the HyperView Player.

File Creation

The .#.h3d files are created when the OUTPUT, H3D, <frequency>, BYITER output option is present and an optimization is performed.

File Contents

The .#.h3d files contain node and element definitions. In the case of shape optimization, the model is updated to the shape of the respective iteration. The following results are included:

Result

Description

Acceleration

Acceleration results from frequency response, transient response, and multi-body dynamics analyses.

Output is controlled by the I/O option ACCELERATION.

Composite ply strain

Ply strain results for composite materials from static analyses.

Output is controlled by the I/O option STRAIN and by the SOUTi field on the PCOMP definition.

Composite ply stress

Ply stress results for composite materials from static and analyses.

Output is controlled by the I/O option STRESS and by the SOUTi field on the PCOMP definition.

Composite failure indices

Failure indices for composite materials from static analyses.

Output is controlled by the I/O option STRESS, by the SOUTi, SB and FT fields on the PCOMP definition and by the related fields on the relevant material definition (see MAT1, MAT2, MAT8).

Comments

1.The # in the file name is the iteration number.
2.Grid point stresses are output for the entire model and for each individual component. This allows grid point stresses to be accurately obtained at the interface of two components referencing different material definitions.
