HyperMesh Tcl Modify Command

Run the design method for a given design point set. The design point set should contain a valid design point and design method.

This outputs a new table entity containing the output of the the operation.

appendlogfile=<value>: The flag to append the Stress Tool log file if the method is run on multiple design point sets or elements.; 0 – Off (default); 1 – On
entity_type: Must be set to designpointsets.
id=<value>: The ID of the design point set.
columnLabels=<value>: The input column label.
debugInfo=<value>: 0 - Do not create a table with input argument data; 1 - Create a table with input argument data (default)
loadcaselist=<value>: The IDs of the method loadcases.

targetentitymark=<value>: The ID of the mark of entities on which the method is run. Valid values are 1 and 2.
targetentitytype=<value>: The entity type on which the method is run. Valid values are elements and designpointsets.

To run the design method for design point set 2:

*rundesignmethod designpointsets id=2

To run the design method for design point set 2 for the target elements on mark 1:

*rundesignmethod designpointmethods id=2 targetentitytype=elems targetentitymark=1
