ANMRES

ANMRES, DELAY, MIN, MAX, INC, AUTOCNTRKY, FREQ, EXT
Performs animation of results over multiple results files in an explicit dynamic structural analysis or fluid flow analysis with remeshing.

Compatible Products: – | Pro | Premium | Enterprise | Ent PP | Ent Solver | DYNA

DELAY

Time delay during animation (default = 0.5 seconds).

MIN

Minimum results file number to animate. Default = 1 (for Jobname.RS01).

MAX

Maximum results file number to animate. Defaults to the highest numbered results file, Jobname.RSnn.

INC

Increment between results file numbers. Default = 1.

AUTOCNTRKY

Automatic contour scaling option.

0

 — 

No auto-scaling (default).

1

 — 

Auto-scaling on.

If you activate automatic contour scaling, ANSYS considers only the minimum and maximum value of the result item from the first results file.

FREQ

Results frequency key.

0 or 1

 — 

Animate every results set in each Jobname.EXT file (default).

2

 — 

Animate every other results set in each Jobname.EXT file.

n

 — 

Animate every nth results set in each Jobname.EXT file.

EXT

Extension of result files

'rfl'

 — 

Animate Jobname.rflnn

'rs'

 — 

Animate Jobname.rsnn. Default = 'rs'.

Notes

ANMRES invokes a macro that performs animation across multiple results files (Jobname.EXT, Jobname.EXT, etc.) produced by an explicit dynamic structural analysis or fluid flow analysis with remeshing. Multiple results files typically occur when adaptive meshing is used in an explicit dynamic structural analysis or fluid flow analysis with remeshing. Each results file must have more than one set of results. ANMRES cannot be used for multiple results files that are caused by file splitting.

ANMRES animates results from files having the currently specified jobname (Jobname.EXT - Jobname.EXT). To change the current jobname, use the /FILNAME command. The animation is based on the last plot command (e.g., PLDISP).

Distributed ANSYS Restriction This command is not supported in Distributed ANSYS.
