hi all
(/pro le/serdal/)
I am taking the error in my ANSYS 2019 R1. After the axial loading to my volume, I want to
display the stress, strain results but I take warning which is 'The requested S data is not
avaliable. The PLNSOL command is ignored'. Then, if I go to folder which is saved of Ansys
les, I observe err folder. The err folder contains messages which are ' The EPLOT command
cannot be executed.  The selected elements cannot be displayed by PowerGraphics.  To
correct this situation, select di erent elements or turn o PowerGraphics.' Then I
shut PowerGraphics but the result is still same My ansys programme is Student version from

29/07/2019 the requested s data is not available. the plnsol command is ignored
shut PowerGraphics but the result is still same. My ansys programme is Student version from
Ansys products. By the way my shape is created in Ansys Mechanical apdl-2015, I want to
load in my Ansys-2019 to this volume but it is not. I hope I could explain my situation

Thanks for any help 

Serdal

Are you reading in the rst le in 2019R1 MAPDL?

(/pro le/smedikon/)
ANSYS looks like the elements you selected are not valid/present?

Are you able to plot the total deformation for the whole structure?

Not able to get the stress solution and de ne element table. In stress solution it shows the
(/pro le/preran/)
requested S data is not available. The PRNSOL command is ignored. and in element table
while adding SMISC, # it shows the requested database is not available. The ETABLE
command is ignored. this is in the student version ANSYS 2019 R1.

Not sure what element you are using. Perhaps try OUTRES, ALL, ALL 
(/pro le/sk_cheah/)
(https://www.sharcnet.ca/Software/Ansys/16.2.3/en-
us/help/ans_cmd/Hlp_C_OUTRES.html)before the solution.

Kind regards,
Jason

Click on the Results Viewer and load the RST, this should have the total deformation at least
(/pro le/smedikon/)
by default
ANSYS

If that doesn't work, try using OUTRES,ALL,ALL as jason suggested in the command window.

Take some time to go over the most commonly used commands in APDL. This article
(http://www.padtinc.com/blog/the-focus/20-apdl-commands-every-ansys-mechanical-user-
should-know) is very useful in getting started.

Additionally, the Cornell learning modules

(https://con uence.cornell.edu/display/SIMULATION/ANSYS+Learning+Modules) have a few
tutorials that you can pick up easily from.

Sandeep

Hey Serdal,
(/pro le/nsiwac/)
Pomalley had the same issue and he suggested changing these settings.

I was having the same issue but changing the mechanical product launcher settings from
distributed computing to shared memory seems to work.
