P2GSUB

Subcase Information Entry

P2GSUB – Direct Input Load Matrix Selection

Description

The P2GSUB command is used in a specific subcase to select a direct input load matrix.

Format

P2GSUB = factor*name (column index)

P2GSUB = PAX

P2GSUB = PAY(2)

P2GSUB = 2.5*PAZ(3)

Argument	Description
factor	Optional scale factor <Real> Default = 1.0
name	Name of a load matrix that is input in the bulk data section using the DMIG card.
column index	Optional column index value <Integer > 0> Default = 1

1.	Terms are added to the load matrix before any constraints are applied.

2.	The DMIG matrix must be rectangular (columnar), that is field 4 on the referenced DMIG entry must contain the integer 9.

3.	A scale factor may be applied to this input using the CP2 parameter (see PARAM bulk data entry).

4.	By default, gravity and centrifugal loads are not generated based on the external mass matrix (M2GG). In this case, gravity and centrifugal loads should be included in generating the reduced loads in the DMIG.

5.	Only one name may be specified on each P2GSUB entry. Multiple P2GSUB entries may be used inside a single subcase section to combine multiple DMIG entries (or to combine multiple columns from the same DMIG).

6.	The P2GSUB statement cannot be specified above the first SUBCASE.
