Use the Copy Study PropertyManager to duplicate a study, or to convert a source study to a target study of a different type.
To open the Copy Study PropertyManager:
- Right-click the top study icon, and click Copy
Study.
Source
|
Select the source study to copy to
a new target study. |
Study
name
|
Type the name of the new target
study. |
Configuration to use
|
Select the configuration to
associate the new study. |
Target
Study
|
Select one from the list of the
available study types. The list of admissible study types is
dependent on the source study. You can only
create a duplicate of these study types: thermal, buckling, drop
test, fatigue, pressure vessel design, nonlinear dynamic,
submodel, and design study.
|
Include
Mesh |
Select this option to copy the mesh data of the source
study to a new target study. This option is
grayed out when either the mesh does not exist, or you attempt
to copy a source study to a target study that is not
supported.
|
Include
Results |
Select this option to copy the simulation results of
the source study to a new target study. This
option is grayed out when either the results are not available,
or you attempt to copy a source study to a target study that is
not supported.
|
The new target study is populated with all admissible loads and boundary conditions from the source study. The program issues warning messages when features of the source static study, such as connectors and loads, are not transferred to the target study due to limitations.
You might still need to define time or frequency-dependent loads for the target
study to run the simulation of a target study.
