Creates an IC element in HMASCII format.
Syntax
*ice (id,type,independentnodesmax,dependentnodesmax)
Type
HyperMesh HMASCII
Description
Creates an IC element in HMASCII format.
This must follow *component(). The element will be assigned to the most recent component created using *component().
*icelink must be used to define the independent nodes.
Inputs
- id
- The ID of the element.
- type
- The solver specific element type.
- independentnodesmax
- The number of independent nodes.
- dependentnodesmax
- The number of dependent nodes.
Example
To create an IC element with ID 500, independent nodes 100 and 101, node 100 dependent nodes 200 and 300 with DOF 12, and node 101 dependent nodes 201 and 301 with DOF 123:
*ice(500,0,2,4)
*icelink(100,2,200,12,300,12)
*icelink(101,2,201,123,301,123)
