PRM File Critical Warnings

PRM file example1??.prm was generated by an older version of Autodesk Netfabb
Local Simulation. Consider regenerating the PRM file with the latest version of
Autodesk Netfabb Local Simulation.

This critical warning occurs when the PRM file version does not match the current version of the PRM generation tool. It is strongly recommended the PRM file be regenerated to ensure the PRM file is up to date and includes all available features.

PRM file example??.prm does not contain conductivity properties. Ensure the input
file has conduction properties or regenerate the PRM file with the correct properties.
PRM file example??.prm does not contain density properties. Ensure the input file
has density properties or regenerate the PRM file with the correct properties.
PRM file example??.prm does not contain specific heat properties. Ensure the input
file has specific heat properties or regenerate the PRM file with the correct properties.
PRM file example??.prm does not contain elastic properties. Ensure the input file
has elastic properties or regenerate the PRM file with the correct properties.
PRM file example??.prm does not contain thermal expansion properties. Ensure the input
file has thermal expansion properties or regenerate the PRM file with the correct properties.
PRM file example??.prm does not contain plasticity properties. Ensure the input file
has plasticity properties or regenerate the PRM file with the correct properties.

These critical warnings occur when a PRM file is missing key material properties.

PRM files that contain material properties cannot be combined with those without
material properties. Rerun using compatible PRM files.

This critical warning indicates that one or more PRM files with material properties are used with one or more PRM files without material properties.

Material properties in prm file example1??.prm do not match example2??.prm

This critical warning indicates that multiple PRM files were used with mismatched material properties. Using multiple materials in a powder bed machine is not yet feasible. The properties from the first PRM file will be used for the simulation.
