The Intergraph reader uses the intergraph_reader.ini file with the following available options:
Value |
Description |
on |
Assign properties to the corresponding component (for components which have more than one property, properties are not assigned). |
off |
Do not assign properties to components (default). |
@CleanupTol
Value |
Description |
double |
A negative value (default) means to use the auto cleanup tolerance. A value greater than the calculated auto cleanup tolerance means to use that specific tolerance. Refer to the CAD Cleanup Tolerance section. |
@CreateMetadataForStiffenerNormals
Value |
Description |
on |
Attach some metadata with info about normals to stiffener/beam/ER systems (see Intergraph Metadata Suppport). |
off |
Do not attach metadata with info about normals to stiffeners/beam/ER systems (default). |
@CreateMultipleComponentsForLinearMembers
Value |
Description |
on |
Create one component for each member part (default). |
off |
Group member parts belonging to the same member system based on thickness and diameter (that is, just one component is created for each set of data). |
@CreateMultipleComponentsForStiffeners
Value |
Description |
on |
Create one or more components for each stiffener/beam/ER geometry (one for each property; that is, if we have flange and web, then two different properties and components are created) (default). |
off |
Group stiffener/beam/ER geometries belonging to the same root stiffener/beam/ER system based on their properties (that is, just one component is created for each set of property data). |
@DoNotMergeEdges
Value |
Description |
on |
Preserve the original geometry edges, instead of merging them together during the import cleanup phase. |
off |
Merge edges together during the import cleanup phase (default). |
Value |
Description |
on |
Import both compartments in the IGES files, and compartments defined by “Faces”. The former by importing the geometry, the latter just by creating a metadata (see Intergraph Metadata Suppport); also reference planes are created, because they can be referenced by compartments. |
off |
Do not import any compartments (default). |
Value |
Description |
on |
Import compartments in the IGES files. |
off |
Do not import any compartments in the IGES files (default). |
Value |
Description |
on |
Create physical properties assigned in the XML to plate systems and bracket children as metadata. |
off |
Do not import physical properties assigned in the XML to plate systems and bracket children (default). |
Value |
Description |
on |
Create stiffener/beam/ER midsurfaces (instead of solid geometry) in both global and local analysis; also create landing curves in global analysis. |
off |
Create stiffener/beam/ER solid geometry in local analysis, and landing curves in global analysis (default). |
Value |
Description |
on |
Do not import topological property (default). |
off |
Create reference planes and sketch contours, and attach metadata to the systems which own these properties (see Intergraph Metadata Suppport). |
Value |
Description |
string |
Prefix the string to all metadata names. By default, no prefix is used. See CAD Metadata Naming for more details. |
@PropertyName
Value |
Description |
string |
Name of the properties created in HyperMesh. It can contain “special” strings that will be replaced with their meaning: <COMPONENT_NAME> is the name of the component to which the property is associated, <PROPERTY_CARD_NAME> is the name of the property card. |
@ScaleFactor
Value |
Description |
double |
Defines the model scaling factor during import. Default is 1.0. |
Value |
Description |
string |
Use to choose the solver for which materials and properties are created; currently this string can be “nastran” or “ansys”; the default solver is Nastran. |
@StiffenerJustCurves
Value |
Description |
on |
Create only landing curves for stiffeners. |
off |
Create the complete stiffener geometry (default). |
