Computation Time Is Too Long
Condition
The computation time is too long.
Remedy
- Increase the Element Size in the Run Analysis window.
- Select Faster in the Speed/Accuracy settings on the Run Analysis or Run Optimization window.
- Redefine all contacts to Bonded.
- Increase the Minimum Thickness Constraint on the Run Optimization window.
- Reduce the number of Normal Modes to be calculated in the Run Analysis window.
- Increase the number of cores for parallel computation under .
- For optimization runs, increase the mesh size for non-design parts in the Property Editor (deselect , and enter a bigger value).
- For sheet metal parts, convert them to surfaces using the Midsurface tool.
