Description

File type

Jobname_000.out

Standard output with convergence history. This is the key output file you should inspect to understand the run and its diagnostics.

ASCII

#autosave.phx

HyperXtrude save file with results from previous nonlinear iteration. This file can be used to restart the analysis, especially when the run ends/crashes for some reason.  This file will be automatically deleted unless the pset parameter SavePHXfileYesNo is set to yes.

Binary

Jobname.save.phx

HyperXtrude results file created once the solution is converged. This file also contains solutions from mesh refinement steps and time steps.  This file will be automatically deleted unless the pset parameter SavePHXfileYesNo is set to yes.

Binary

Jobname.mod

Finite element mesh that can be imported into HyperMesh. This is not often used. To enable this output, add these commands to the TCL file:

ASCII

Jobname.res

Results file that can be imported into HyperMesh. This is not often used. To enable this output, add these commands to the TCL file:

Binary

Jobname.h3d

Results file in HyperView format. This is the main output file for post-processing the results.

Binary

Jobname.pth

Solution along a particle path line.

ASCII

Jobname.fem

OptiStruct input deck for tool deflection and fatigue analysis

ASCII

Jobname.rtm

This file will be written for metal extrusion analysis and it contains information needed by the automatic report generator

ASCII

Jobname.srf

Boundary fluxes and forces
