The tutorial Running RADIOSS from HyperMesh demonstrates how RADIOSS could be launched from within HyperMesh. RADIOSS also can be run at the command line (UNIX or MSDOS). This tutorial assumes you already have the running file, Radioss_Sample_Run.rad, in either your UNIX or MSDOS directory. This tutorial also assumes you know the location of the solver script.

In this tutorial, $HWSDIR describes the directory containing the RADIOSS executable. On UNIX machines, the  script is normally located in the HyperWorks installation directory under <install_directory>/scripts/. On Windows, it is normally located in the HyperWorks installation directory under <install_directory>/hwsolvers/scripts/.

Running RADIOSS from the Command Line (UNIX or MSDOS).

To run RADIOSS from the command prompt, enter:

$HWSDIR/<solver_name> Radioss_Sample_Run.rad

 

To check the current version of RADIOSS at the command prompt, enter:

$HWSDIR/<solver_name> -version

 

To execute a check run to validate your input deck and determine how much RAM and disk space is necessary for the run, at the command prompt, enter:

$HWSDIR/<solver_name> Radioss_Sample_Run.rad -check

Information regarding memory requirements is written to the file Radioss_Sample_Run.out.

Refer to the Running RADIOSS section of the RADIOSS User's Guide for more detailed information.
