ansys.mapdl.core.Mapdl.fcomp#
- Mapdl.fcomp(ident='', level='', **kwargs)#
Specifies file-compression options.
Mechanical APDL Command: /FCOMP
- Parameters:
- ident
str
Mechanical APDL file identifier. There is no default. Valid labels are:
RST
- Results file.DB
- Database file.RNNN
- Restart file.OSAV
- File created during a nonlinear analysis that contains a copy ofESAV
file from the last converged substep.
- level
int
orstr
Compression level:
SPARSE
- Use a sparsification scheme for file compression (default).0
- No file compression occurs.n
- A zlib-based file compression occurs using level numbern
, which ranges from 1 to 5.
- ident
Notes
Specifies file compression options for results files (
.rst
,.rstp
,.rth
, and.rmg
files), database files (.db
and.rdb
), certain restart files (.Rnnn
), and the.osav
file created during a nonlinear analysis. (See Program- Generated Files Set displays command or the resume command).For results files compressed using the sparsification scheme (
LEVEL
= SPARSE, which is the default), use the*XPL
command to uncompress the file. For third party tools that need to read the results file, use the method described in Accessing Mechanical APDL Binary FilesSee in the Basic Analysis Guide for more details.
This command is valid only at the Begin Level.
