The Moldflow study file is comprised of data blocks, each storing a specific set of data. Any given data block is only created if it is required by the analysis.
| Block | Description | Editable with studymod |
|---|---|---|
| TITL{ } | Title data - General file information | No |
| GLBL{ } | Global data - Application and general mesh settings. Mesh settings can be changed. Other keywords cannot be changed. | Yes* |
| SUMR{ } | Summary data - Number of each type of entity. | No |
| COLR{ } | Color definition data | No |
| LYER{ } | Layer data | No |
| TSET{ } | Property data sets - Process parameters, entity and boundary condition properties. | Yes |
| NODE{ } | Node data - ID, screen representation and coordinates. | Yes# |
| TRI3{ } | Shell element data. | Yes# ^ |
| 1DET{ } | 1D element data (beam elements). | Yes# ^ |
| TET4{ } | Tetrahedral element data. | Yes# ^ |
| CURV{ } | Curve data set | Yes# |
| NDBC{ } | Nodal boundary condition data - Includes injection locations, coolant inlets, and warpage constraints. Each type of boundary condition has a different data structure. | Yes~ |
| STLR{ } | STL region data. | No |
| BLOB{ } | BLOB data. Pre-calculated data such as Dual-Domain matching information or thicknesses. Stored to avoid recalculation. | No |
# Mesh data can only be replaced as a whole using <Mesh cmd="Import">.
^ Element properties such as element thickness can be modified. The reference to the property set can be found inside the element description line.
~ Boundary condition properties can be modified through their property set. The reference to the property set can be found inside the boundary condition description line. For example, an injection node is linked to the Property (TSET_TYPE) 40000.
