Hi guys,
i´m having a problem to display pressure maps generated by wind simulation, i had to erase the first wind simulation cases and do it again, and now i just can´t see the pressure maps.
Can anyone help me?

Pode mandar o modelo?

Hi @Anonymous
Is it the same if you run next simulation with the same parameters?

Hi @Anonymous
I made a quick test and I can't see any issue with pressure map display. Try the steps below:

I did those steps with no success. Very strage indeed, because only some claddings disappear, and no pressure maps are displayed.
Accepted solution
Machini4,
All claddings have to be perfectly flat for them to work. That´s your main problem concerning the wind generation. It will not generate loads on chosen claddings if they are not flat.
But this "unflatness" comes from the fact that your model has lots of "imprecise modelling" . Check below some of the truss nodes coordinates on "Cartesiano P" axis.
Probably you created the claddings with many "snaps" turned on and certainly this is the most common cause for so many imprecisions.
You should very much correct your model . Try using Edit/detailed correct .
I prefer ALWAYS to build the model snapping to nodes . Avoid snapping to grid points!!!
Correcting your nodes will automatically correct most of your bar positions. Only then you should correct your claddings .
There´s an excelent tool to check and correct cladding flatness on
Using it I was able to make most of your claddings to "receive" load from the wind generator. As you can see below , Some are still not getting wind load
This below are the messages when I ran your model just for this wind load I created.
Instability Type 1 cannot be ignored. Check the webinar 16 about instabilities on Build your Robot Structural Analysis IQ - YouTube
For good practices on panel modelling check webinars 1 an2 on the same link.
Also , there are some fixed supports on the upper levels!

With that, I can not model a Sphere like a Radome? Can you check this File Rafa. I tried making a Sphere but I can not regenerate pressure on its Surface including the Maps.
The Panel has to be flat . Your dome is just one panel . Iwould have to be made by a group of isolated flat panels.
I tried using an addin by @Rafal.Gaweda that transforms every single FE on an isolated panel .
I have used it before on another model and it worked perfectly. But it is not working not on yours or any other.

Hi @Rafacascudo
What is Your Excel? 32 or 64 bit?
Macro should report 810 FEs instead of 29782.
PLease (re) register Robot as Admin and run it as Admin
Rafal Gaweda
How to re register robot as admin?
opening robot as admin gives the same error
opening excel as admin gives " Open Robot and load model" warning
