BODY_NAME |
Unique body name for this PRBODY. Default = OUTFILE_body_<BID> (Character string) |
TYPE# |
Flag indicating that the following list of IDs refer to entities of this type. All property definitions; CELAS2, CONM2, PLTOEL, RBE2, RBE3, RBAR, RROD, and GRID are valid types for this field. No default (PBAR, PBARL, PBEAM, PBEAML, PBUSH, PCOMP, PDAMP, PELAS, PGAP, PROD, PSHEAR, PSHELL, PSOLID, PVISC, PWELD, CELAS2, CONM2, PLOTEL, RBE2, RBE3, RBAR, RROD, or GRID) |
ID# |
Identification numbers of entities of the preceding TYPE flag. No default (Integer > 0) |
1. | Any number of property definitions; CELAS2, CONM2, PLOTEL, RBAR, RBE2, RBE3, or RROD elements or grid points can be given. |
2. | At least one property definition, element, or grid point must be given. |
3. | A property definition, CELAS2, CONM2, PLOTEL, RBE2, REB3, RBAR, or RROD element or grid point can only belong to one ground or rigid or flexible body. |
4. | The grid ID provided in the ground card is considered grounded. |
