Simpack FE-Safe Integration

Hello,

I am currently working on integrating a Simpack-generated stress dataset into FE-Safe and am encountering an issue during the data import process.

I have successfully:

  • Loaded the flexible body (.fbi) file into the Current FE Models window
  • Loaded the corresponding .ldf file into the Loading Settings window

However, I am unable to load the stress history file into the Loaded Data Files window. When attempting to import the file, I receive the following error:

Data file format not recognised.
S_chassis__B_chassis_history.txt:1
NOTE: file does exist.
Could not open S_chassis__B_chassis_history.txt

The file is present in the expected directory, but FE-Safe does not recognize its format.

FE-Safe is relatively new to me, and although I have reviewed the available documentation and tutorials, I have not found guidance specifically addressing Simpack-generated result files.

Is there any documentation or recommended workflow available for importing Simpack stress results into FE-Safe? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your time and assistance.

Best regards,
Paul
