Hi!

I am trying to extract equivalent stresses for a named nodal selection using mechanical scripting, in the Python Result Object. However, when I try to run the script below, it throws up an error saying "Invalid Geometry type for the analysis". Any inputs or suggestions on fixing the code would be helpful!

The script worked for me after I corrected a couple mistakes:

1. This line: s_eqv_op.inputs.datasources.Connect(datasource)

Needs to be this: s_eqv_op.inputs.data_sources.Connect(datasource)

2. Remove this line: dpf_workflow.Record('wf_id', TRUE)

What is in the named selection "BOLT_SHANK_UPPER_1"?

I selected a face on a 3D body for a named selection, then I right clicked on the named selection to choose "Create Nodal Named Selection"

Are there beams in the named selection?

This script works now. Thank you so much!

 

The named selection did not contain any beam elements.
