By using
the Calculate window (accessible through the Calculate>Calculate Window menu sequence), it is possible to
start and manage the analysis of the problem. Word process is used to refer the running
analysis code. This word is used to show the possibility that several analysis
or processes can be run at the same
Options for this window are:
Start: Begins the calculation. Once it is pressed, you can continue working with the pre-processor as usual.
Kill: After selecting a running process, this button stops its execution.
Output view: After selecting a running process, this button opens a window that shows process related information such as iterations, convergence, etc.
Close: Closes the window but does not stop the running processes.
A list of
all the running processes is shown, with some useful information like name,
starting
When pressing the Start button in the Calculate window, Tdyn will start the calculation process. This can also be done using the corresponding icon.
When the Tdyn calculation process is finished, the system displays the following message:
Process -name- started on -date- has finished.
Then the results can be visualized by selecting Files>Postprocess.
Note that the intermediate results can be shown at any moment of the process even if the calculations are not finished yet.
