memory ram ansys

[hydrogenum]

Hello.
I have a structural model of 180 000 elements, not linear and I can't turn it on my pc.

my pc is an intel repentum 4 3.2ghz and 1.2gb of ram with 80gb of hd.

the model requires me 2.2gb of "in-core memory", but is the ram that is little or can I set something in ansys?? ? ?
Thank you.

I.

I'm afraid it's all very little that hardware... not just the ram.

I don't think you can do anything against the demands of that amount of memory... If you want to load the aid, the system must be able to use such resources. .

Moreover, once loaded, it would be practically unmanageable.

What video card does that pc fit?

[ot] My curiosity.. What do you mean by "non-linear aid"?

forgives insistence[/ot]

My pc is a 4 repentum, 1.2gb ram, 80 hd and 128mb video card ati.


the model is a 2d with plane82 elements - counts172 and targe169.... being present of the contact elements the analysis is not linear.

ansys asks me 2.2gb of "in-core memory".... and stops the analysis....it ends
...

What is incore memory???? Is that ram?


Is there any way to fix things from ansys' launcher?

Thank you.

Yes, you must set the iterative solutor...if you work from the wb is under "analysis setting" if you do from the classic I don't know :d

180k nodes and nonlinear analysis do not go very well with 1.2 gb of ram:d

Hi.
I have the same hydro problem, but with a much more powerful pc (e6600 2.4ghz - 4gb ram - geforce 8800gt), so I would like to upgrade the processor but I have a doubt:

ansys exploits multithread and cache?

1) If the answer is yes, then it should take a quadcore with high cache, like the q9550 2.83ghz 12mb
2) if the answer is no, better bet on a dualcore with high frequencies like the e8500 3.16ghz 6mb

yes, ansys can be paralleled on multiple processors having the special hpc license. with a normal license only uses two processors (better to say 2 cores).
a tip: The best money spent is the ram money, it needs a lot!

Good evening,
to ask for clarification: the intel i7 processor (quadcore) needs hpc to be exploited at best?

Thank you.
