I&#039;ve tried to right click over modal on mechanical and &quot;export nastran file&quot;. But when my friend tries to import this .bdf file on HyperMesh, the result is not good, she cannot see anything, just some random nodes, not even the 3D component is there. Any tips on how to export correctly? Or even export to Optistruct would be helpful, as she doesn&#039;t have ansys there.<\/p>\n<div class=\"embedExternal embedImage\">\n<div class=\"embedExternal-content\">\n<a class=\"embedImage-link\" href=\"\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/forum-uploads\/046\/KJ9EINS9KKEC.png\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"embedImage-img\" src=\"\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/forum-uploads\/046\/KJ9EINS9KKEC.png\" alt=\"nastran export 1.png\" \/><br \/>\n<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-158085","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry","topic-tag-export","topic-tag-hypermesh-1"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_author_ip":[""],"_bbp_old_reply_author_name_id":["Anonymous"],"_bbp_old_is_reply_anonymous_id":["false"],"_btv_view_count":["9492"],"_bbp_likes_count":["0"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_bbp_status":["publish"],"_bbp_topic_id":["158085"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27790"],"_bbp_engagement":["240","191988"],"_bbp_voice_count":["2"],"_bbp_reply_count":["3"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["177254"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["177254"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2021-05-06 11:24:45"]},"test":"luizpaulorfhotmail-com"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/158085","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/158085\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=158085"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
