ID |
Unique DLINK identification number. (Integer > 0) |
DDVID |
Dependent Design Variable identification number. (Integer > 0) |
C0 |
Constant. Default = 0.0 (Real) |
CMULT |
Constant multiplier. Default = 1.0 (Real) |
IDVi |
Independent Design Variable identification number. Can occur on the same DLINK entry only once (Integer > 0) |
Ci |
Coefficient multiplier for IDVi. (Real) |
| 1. | DLINK defines the relationship. |
This capability allows physical and non-physical design variables to be related such as shell thickness and interpolating functions.
| 2. | CMULT and Ci can be used together to provide a simple means of scaling. |
| 3. | This card is represented as an optimization designvariablelink in HyperMesh. |
