MODEL

I/O Options Entry

MODEL - Output Control

Description

The MODEL command can be used in the I/O Options section to request output of only a subset of the model and related results for H3D and OUTPUT results files as well as for CMS superelements.

Format

MODEL = elset, gridset, rigidset

Argument	Options	Description
elset	<SID, PLOTEL, ALL, NONE> Default (analysis run) = ALL Default (CMS SE creation) = NONE	SID:	ID of an element SET. A set of elements that describe the subset of the model for which results and model information is to be output. All GRID and SPOINT associated with these elements will also be output.
		PLOTEL:	All PLOTELs in the model and their associated GRID will be output.
		ALL:	All elements in the model and their associated GRID will be output.
		NONE:	No elements.
gridset	<SID, ALL, NONE> Default = NONE	SID:	SID of a SET. A set of grids to be added to the subset associated with the preceding elset field.
		ALL:	All grids.
		NONE:	No grids are added to the subset described by the preceding elset field.
rigidset	<RIGID/ALL, NORIGID/NONE, SID> Default (analysis run) =RIGID/ALL Default (CMS SE creation) = NORIGID/NONE	RIGID/ALL:	All rigid elements and their associated GRID will be output.
		NORIGID/NONE:	No rigid elements will be output.
		SID:	ID of a rigid element SET. A set of rigid elements that describe the subset of the model for which model information is to be output. All GRID and SPOINT associated with these rigid elements will also be output.

Comments

1.	For CMS superelements output in h3d format, only the ASET DOF are output when the MODEL data is not present. When the MODEL data is present, the .h3d file contains the ASET DOF and what is specified on the MODEL data.

2.	In addition to the results output, the MODEL data controls the portion of the model that is written to the .op2 and .h3d files.

3.	When PARAM,EXCOUT with values of 0, 3, 4, 5 or 6 is used during CMS superelement creation, the default is to output the entire model, as well as results to the .h3d file and AVL/EXCITE files.
