Field

Contents

EID

Unique element identification number.

No default (Integer > 0)

M

Scalar mass value.

No default (Real)

S1, S2

Scalar point identification numbers.

S1 or S2, but not both, may be blank or zero, indicating a constrained coordinate. This is the usual case.

Default = 0 (Integer > 0; S1 ≠ S2)

Comments

1.Only one scalar mass element may be defined on a single entry.
2.A scalar point specified on this entry does not to be defined on an SPOINT entry.
3.This single entry completely defines the element since no material or geometric properties are required.
4.Scalar mass elements are ignored in heat transfer analysis.
5.This card is represented as a spring or mass element in HyperMesh.
