FE Model Correlation and Update > Correlation solution process

Refreshing correlation results

Use the Refresh Correlation command when you need to update the active correlation solution process or its node map and mode pairs due to changes:

  • In the correlation settings.

  • To the number of active sensors and active modes.

  • In your model, simulation, or solution properties.

If the Simulation file did not automatically load the mode shapes, use this command to load them. Automatically loading mode shape is set using the Automatically Load Mode Shapes customer default.

Tip:

To find a customer default, choose File tab→UtilitiesCustomer Defaults, and click Find Default .

Out-of-date indicators

In the Simulation Navigator the following out-of-date indicators appear:

  • A different results icon appears when you make changes in your model, simulation, or solution properties that could require a resolve and a reload of the work solution or reference solution.

  • An update icon appears when either the node map or the mode pairing needs to be updated.

Solution 2 Results Reference
Modes [10] Ready
Sensors [27]
Solution 1 Results Work
Modes [15] Ready

Out-of-date solution results

To reload the work solution and reference solution results, right-click the Solution Results node and choose Reload. To continue using the current results if you are sure your changes did not affect the solution results, choose Ignore Changes.

Note:

Reload the solution's results if you have made changes that affect the modal solution. You need to rerun the solver before you reload the results.
