*rbe3()
Creates an RBE3 element in HMASCII format.
Syntax
*rbe3 (independentnodes independentdofs independentcoeffs dependentnode dependentdof dependentcoef)
Type
HyperMesh HMASCII
Inputs
- id
- The ID of the element.
- type
- The type of the element.
- independentnodes
- The number of independent nodes contained in the following *independentnodes() entry.
- independentdofs
- The number of independent degrees of freedom contained in the following *independentdofs() command.
- independentcoeffs
- The number of independent coefficients contained in the following *independentcoeffs() command.
- dependentnode
- The ID of the dependent node.
- dependentdof
- The degree of freedom associated with the dependent node.
- dependentcoef
- The coefficient of the dependent node.
Example
An *independentnodes() description must immediately follow. If independentdofs is greater than 0, an *independentdofs() command must follow. If independentcoeffs is greater than 0, an *indpendentcoeffs() command must follow. The order for these descriptions should be:
*rbe()
*independentnodes()
*independentdofs()
*independentcoeffs()
Errors
None.
