We’re putting the final touches on our new badges platform. Badge issuance remains temporarily paused, but all completions are being recorded and will be fulfilled once the platform is live. Thank you for your patience.

  3. I want to enable the GPU accelerator for a simulation involving a hyperelastic material model, but I seem to be activating Partial Pivoting Logic which precludes the GPU from being used. How can I use my GPU in conjunction with my current analysis setup?

      The help states that Partial Pivoting Logic will be activated if the mixed u-P formulation is used (help/ans_dan/gpusupport.html#nvidiahardware). In order to prevent this formulation from being activated, provide a small value for the material incompressibility parameter, d (e.g., use d = 0.001). This will prevent the mixed u-P formulation from being activated by the solver and your GPU will also be used in the solve as well.
