VMoveCAE can read the translation parameters from a file and use it for translation. The translation parameters can include the locations of the model, results and cax files, settings for different features that user wants to create as well as the translation and filtering information of different parts, results and features. VMoveCAE supports both text and xml formatted translation files. These formats are explained in the below sections.
The file format for specifying the translation parameters differs slightly in VMoveCAE to the format of VMoveCAE 2006. A sample parameters file is shown in the following table. The format is quite self-explanatory.

[VMoveCAE] version = 2.0
[translation] model file = "E:\Test\Ansys\new_file.rst" output file = "E:\Test\Ansys\new_file.cax"
[defaults] parts = translate # translate unspecified parts results = filter # filter unspecified results [] [preferences] mid-nodes = turn on [] [part] name = Head filter = true # this is equivalent to “translate = true" [] [result] name = Displacement instances = 3-6 translate = true [] [instance] id = 4 results = Displacement, Stress translate = true [] [feature-edge] name = Head angle = 60 translate = true [] [cut-section] plane equation = "X=50" translate = true [] [cut-section] plane equation = "Y=5" translate = false [] [iso-surface] result = Strain Energy value = 10 translate = true [] [iso-surface] result = Stress derived type = Von Mises value = 20 translate = true [] [] [] |
VMoveCAE can also read and process the files generated by VMoveCAE 2006. One thing to note during the use of translation parameters files generated by VMoveCAE 2006, the output file extension is specified as vcz. VMoveCAE automatically modifies this into .cax. For details on the translation parameters file format used by VMoveCAE 2006, please refer to VMoveCAE 2006 documentation.
A sample xml file is shown below..
