Monitoring the Solution Process
While a simulation is running, you can monitor the solution's progress in the Progress window. The progress bar shows the relative progress of the simulation.
You can also view the following solution data at any time during or after the solution:
- Mesh statistics (numbers of elements, lengths, volumes, and volume standard deviation; all on a per-object basis).
- A profile showing the status of the analysis process, elapsed time, memory useage, and more
To view the Solutions window:
- Right-click the solution Setup in the Project Manager.
A shortcut menu appears.
- Select Convergence, , Mesh Statistics, or Profile from the shortcut menu.
The Solutions window appears with the corresponding tab selected and the current data displayed.
To view the solution status:
-
- You can use the Properties button to display a dialog box that lets you change the way the Setup, Solution, and Variation are listed in the tree structure of the Solutions dialog box.
- You can delete one or more solutions by selecting from the table and clicking Delete. Click on a solution to select it, and use Ctrl+click to select multiple solutions, or Shift+click to select a range of solutions. You can also select all solutions using the Select All button.
- The Statistics tab of the Solutions dialog box displays path information as well as format, number of files, and size.
The Solutions dialog box appears with the Browse tab selected. It contains a tree structure showing the solutions listed according to Setup, Solution, and Variation. A table lists the setup, the solution, and the state of the solution.
If a license is lost, the software waits for the license to be regained, checking every 2 minutes or until you abort.
