Problem with Updating ANSYS External Model Input Path During Iterative Optimization in ModeFrontier?

18 November 2024 1 9K Report

Hi everyone,

I am currently working on lattice structure optimization using ModeFrontier integrated with ANSYS (2022). My workflow involves:

Generating .inp files from nTop and directing them through a File Transfer Node in ModeFrontier.

Using the Direct ANSYS Node in ModeFrontier to run ANSYS simulations with the transferred .inp files.

The issue I am facing is that ANSYS does not update the input file (.inp) with each iteration. It seems that ANSYS External Model is fixed to the initial .inp file path, and subsequent files generated during iterations are not being used.

I suspect the problem lies with the External Model Input Path in ANSYS. Even when I specify it initially, ANSYS does not seem to dynamically read the updated files provided during iterations.

Has anyone encountered a similar issue? How can I configure ANSYS to dynamically update and use the new .inp file during each iteration in ModeFrontier?

Thank you for your help!
