From 723b71e60b7b60e714800a1e13fc2336d24364cb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Anto01 Date: Sat, 15 Nov 2025 11:18:03 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] fix: Complete stress extraction fix for NX Nastran OP2 files THREE critical fixes applied: 1. API Access Pattern - Support dotted attribute names (e.g., 'stress.chexa_stress') - Compatible with newer pyNastran versions (NX 2412.5) - Fallback to older API formats for compatibility 2. Correct Von Mises Index - Solid elements (CHEXA, CTETRA, CPENTA): index 9 - Shell elements (CQUAD4, CTRIA3): last column - Data structure: [oxx, oyy, ozz, txy, tyz, txz, o1, o2, o3, von_mises] 3. Units Conversion (CRITICAL) - NX Nastran outputs stress in kPa, not MPa - Apply conversion: kPa / 1000 = MPa - Example: 113094.73 kPa -> 113.09 MPa Test Results: - Before: 0.00 MPa (FAIL) - After: 113.09 MPa at element 83 (SUCCESS) Files modified: - optimization_engine/result_extractors/op2_extractor_example.py Test files added: - examples/test_stress_direct.py - examples/test_stress_fix.py - examples/debug_op2_stress.py - STRESS_EXTRACTION_FIXED.md - TESTING_STRESS_FIX.md --- STRESS_EXTRACTION_FIXED.md | 130 ++++++++++++++++++ TESTING_STRESS_FIX.md | 87 ++++++++++++ examples/debug_op2_stress.py | 88 ++++++++++++ examples/test_stress_direct.py | 56 ++++++++ examples/test_stress_fix.py | 65 +++++++++ .../op2_extractor_example.py | 68 ++++++--- 6 files changed, 474 insertions(+), 20 deletions(-) create mode 100644 STRESS_EXTRACTION_FIXED.md create mode 100644 TESTING_STRESS_FIX.md create mode 100644 examples/debug_op2_stress.py create mode 100644 examples/test_stress_direct.py create mode 100644 examples/test_stress_fix.py diff --git a/STRESS_EXTRACTION_FIXED.md b/STRESS_EXTRACTION_FIXED.md new file mode 100644 index 00000000..d1049589 --- /dev/null +++ b/STRESS_EXTRACTION_FIXED.md @@ -0,0 +1,130 @@ +# Stress Extraction Fix - Complete ✅ + +## Problem Summary +Stress extraction from NX Nastran OP2 files was returning **0.0 MPa** instead of expected values (~113 MPa). + +## Root Causes Identified + +### 1. pyNastran API Structure (Primary Issue) +**Problem**: The OP2 object uses dotted attribute names like `'stress.chexa_stress'` (not `op2.stress.chexa_stress`) + +**Solution**: Check for dotted attribute names using `hasattr(op2, 'stress.chexa_stress')` + +### 2.
