  3. Click Open.
  4. In the Solver Import Options dialog, accept the default settings and click Import.

Submit the Residual Job

  2. On the Analyze ribbon, under the Analyze tool group, select Run OptiStruct Solver .
    The panel area opens.
  3. Click Save as.
  4. For File name, enter airframe_section_BASELINE_CMS.fem.
    The .fem extension is necessary to recognize this as an input file.

  8. Click Run.
    If the job is successful, new results files appear in the directory where Altair HyperWorks was invoked. The airframe_section_BASELINE_CMS.out file is a good place to look for error messages to help debug the input deck if any errors are present.
