automatedMultiRun.py : Automated analysis runs for multiple .inp files.

What this code does?

This script helps you to run multiple analyses sequentially.

Usage Instructions

1. Generate .inp Files
   Generate your analysis files by exporting as .inp files. 'analysis_1.inp, analysis_2.inp, analysis_3.inp etc.`
2. Set Working Directory
   Set the path to .inp files in the Python script @line#7 ----> working_directory = "C:\\Users\\ABCDEF\\Desktop\\Analysis\\"
3. Set CalculiX Executable Path
   Set the path to ccxVERSION.exe executable in the Python script @line#10 ----> ccx_executable = "C:\\Users\\ABCDEF\\Desktop\\Calculix\\bin\\ccx\\ccx213.exe"
4. Add Files to Run List
   Add .inp file names to list in the Python script @line#13 ----> inp_files = ["analysis_1", "analysis_2", "analysis_3"]"
5. Specify Number of Processors You Want to Use
   Edit variable ‘numberOfCores’ in the Python script @line#18 numberOfCores = 4
6. Run the Script When you run the script, it will send .inp files one by one to Calculix folder. You will be able to see elapsed time for each run and also total time for all analysis.
7. See Result Files Result files are going to be created in the working directory you set @step#2.

optional You can also use getResultsFromFRD.py script to work easily with nodal stress\strain\force\displacement results. PrePoMax_CalculiX_OpenSource/getResultsFromFRD at main · mhayrettin/PrePoMax_CalculiX_OpenSource · GitHub
