RADIOSS One Step Macro Menu

The options on the RADIOSS One Step Macro menu include the following:

Model	Description
HF	Import a HyperForm file saved in an earlier session.
CAD	Directly import external CAD files. Commonly used, supported file formats include: CATIA, IGES, STL, PDGS, VDAFS, UG18 and UG_NX.
FE	Directly import input decks corresponding to different FE solvers. Commonly used, supported solver formats include: OptiStruct, Nastran, ANSYS, Abaqus, LS-DYNA, RADIOSS, PAM-CRASH 2G, MoldFlow, C-Mold, etc.
Organize	Reorganize your database by copying or moving entities among collectors.
R-Mesh	Opens the R Mesh macro.
Mesh	Takes you to the Automesh panel. This panel allows you to create meshes or remesh existing meshing interactively or automatically on surfaces or groups of elements.
Check Elems	Verify the basic quality of your elements. The element quality check values have been pre-set for a typical one-step analysis.
Setup	Description
Autotip	Orient the part in a formable position with the assumption that the stamping direction is along the global z-axis. See the Autotipping panel for more information on this feature.
Materials	Create a new material or select one from the library.
Components	Create a new component and assign attributes such as elements, material, and thickness to a part.
Constraints	Specify boundary conditions.
Blankholder	Setup a blankholder with an appropriate clamping force.
Drawbeads	Set up the drawbeads and the corresponding restraining forces.
Save	Save your file.
Run	Launch a One-Step analysis.
Results	Description
Blank Shape	This displays the initial blank shape and writes out an IGES data file of the initial blank profile.
Deformed	View both initial and final deformed shape of the part.
% Thinning	View the contours of thinning per cent after forming.
Formability	View the formability contours on the part along with a FLD plot.
Blank Fit…	Opens the Blank Fit macro.
Generate Report	Create an HTML-based or PowerPoint presentation containing results from the forming analysis. Choose from among five result types and export as H3D, JPEG, or AVI files. Note: End users of the resulting report must have the HyperView Player (7.0 SP1,SA-042 and above) installed to take full advantage of the animation features in the report.
