In addition to standard restart files,
restarting from a given load step and substep of a nonlinear adaptivity analysis
requires the .rdnn
and
.rnnn
files. Restarting can
occur only at the substep where both files have been saved during the analysis.
To identify substeps where both the
.rdnn
and
.rnnn
files are available, issue
this command:
RESCONTROL,FILE_SUMMARY
Restarting from a substep at which remeshing occurred during a nonlinear adaptivity analysis is not recommended. Some remeshing data is not saved and the remeshing behavior may not be repeatable.
