In this section you find information about occurring warnings and errors. As we are continuously gathering information on how/when warnings and errors occur and under which circumstances this site will constantly be updated with new information.
Please contact the respective support for your application:
Please contact the MSC Apex Support if a warning or error occurs which is not yet listed here or cannot be averted by applying the compiled help:
W255de448
Found … voxels outside of valid design space … removed them.
Optimization run continues.

W244ff728
Cannot map voxel …
The loads and boundary conditions could not be mapped to the voxel model and might not be considered in the optimisation anymore. LBCs should always be applied to Non-Design Spaces. These ensure a correct consideration of the LBCs during the optimisation.

Cannot copy output file. … does not exist as regular file
This might occur while performing a Command Line optimisation. While the SwitchAddRemove (schedule.iterations.OutputDuplicateInErode.outputMode, schedule.iterations.OutputDuplicateInGrow.outputMode) option is active only every second iteration is visible as an result. In this case the iteration could not be copied but the optimisation will continue. To remedy this situation delete the output folder and start the optimisation anew.

The model is very big (galactic size) and cannot be imported in the software. Check you unit system and dimensions.
W6bef1a88
Low memory, reducing preallocation amount … attempts left.
Memory storage is checked. If not enough memory is available, less memory storage is checked. If there isn’t enough memory storage available to do the allocation an Error (Eb20f3210) will be occur.
W644693f8
Time estimation has become inconsistent, expect inaccuracies.

Error detecting available memory / low available memory … GB
There are two possible reasons for this warning:
The available memory cannot be detected because of the operating system.
There isn’t even enough memory available to let the optimisation start.
Make sure that there is more memory available or reduce the complexity.

This is a feasibility check regarding the input complexity value. The chosen complexity value is too high to be calculated on this machine. A certain maximum complexity value is recommended.

This is a feasibility check regarding the input complexity value. The chosen complexity value is too high to be calculated on this machine. A certain maximum complexity value is recommended.
W76bd49a8
Unable to compute centroid for geometry … using bounding box center instead
A “corrupt” STL/PLY file was supplied for a Mask named in the warning text. Depending on other mask settings (whether the surface is to be used / filled), different centroids / centers of gravity are computed. This warning indicates all those attempts have failed and instead the bounding box center is used.
This can happen if the input has degenerate triangles or is not a closed surface. Please check the input files or replace these if possible.
W2e4e8b88
boundary condition is dislodged - no active elements …
A boundary condition was disconnected. A reconnect and other connection strategies were unsuccessful. Please check you model set up and make some adjustments for a feasible model.

This Error is only produced after another Error was encountered. The optimisation algorithm tried to continue despite the previous Error but could not continue. The optimisation fails with this Error although the primary Error is the reason for the terminated optimisation.

The chosen complexity value is too high to be calculated on this machine. A certain maximum complexity value is recommended.
Eb20f3415
boundary condition is missing elements
A Non-Design Space was removed and the applied boundary conditions are not considered.
The Design Space has lost the connection to the force/constraint application point. The model is no longer complete and it doesn’t make sense to continue with the optimisation.
Increase the Complexity.
