Description

SNAPTHRU

YES, NO

Default = NO

PARAM, SNAPTHRU controls the output of the force-deflection curve in geometric nonlinear analysis.

If YES, the converter will generate rigid bodies internally and output the time history for rigid body forces in the Time-History (TH) file. This is valid only when grids are defined on XHIST bulk data entry with TYPE = GRID and ENTRY=DEF simultaneously. The force-deflection curve can be cross plotted with the grid displacements and corresponding rigid body forces in HyperGraph.

If NO, output of the force-deflection curve is not requested and the internal rigid bodies are not generated.
