Restart calculations

You can restart calculations in order to modify calculation parameters or solving methods for an analysis type, and also to run calculations for a selection of cases only.

The Calculation Restart dialog is available only if full calculations have been made first.
  1. Click Analysis Calculation Restart. The Calculation Restart dialog opens.
  2. Select a case for which you want to restart the calculations.
  3. Click Define parameters. The calculation parameters corresponding to the selected case opens.
  4. Modify analysis parameters as necessary, and then click OK. The edited case is selected and ready to be calculated again.
    Note: With some analyses, such as the Modal and Seismic analyses, modifying the calculation parameters of a case may require that the results of another case be calculated again too. In that case, all necessary cases are selected for calculation in the dialog.

    If you deselect a case for which parameters have been modified, then a red icon appears next to the case.

  5. Click Restart calculations.

    The Calculation dialog opens, showing the progress of the calculation process.
