Hi

I uploaded a picture of .dat time series data of my ansys aqwa simulation. This is a picture of Deck 1 and it seems that nodes number jumps from 42 to 536. Is there any issues for this? does it mean that some nodes are missing? If so, can you please guide me how to fix it? Thanks in advance.

Hello,

This is nothing to worry about - the node numbers in the dat file can be in any order, and they do not have to be continuous or ascending. This is also very common when the dat file has been generated by the Aqwa Workbench editor. You may find that the sequence of nodes 43-535 are somewhere else in Deck 1.
