Field

Contents

PID

Property identification number.

No default (Integer > 0)

K

Stiffness.

Default = 0.0 (Real > 0)

B

Viscous damping.

Default = 0.0 (Real > 0)

M

Total mass.

Default = 0.0 (Real > 0)

SPRING

String indicating that a function defining the spring characteristics follows.

Tension is U > 0 and Compression is U < 0 where U = U(GB) – U(GA) in CBUSH1D element coordinate system: GA/GB are grid points on CBUSH1D

TYPE

Type of input definition.

Default = TABLE (Character = TABLE)

IDT

A TABLEDi table entry identification number.

No default (Integer > 0)

Comments

1.Either the stiffness K, or the damping B, or the mass M must be specified. B and M are ignored in static subcases.
2.The SPRING continuation line is used in nonlinear analysis solution sequences only. The table input supersedes the stiffness K.
3.PBUSH1D may only be referenced by CBUSH1D elements.
4.In all linear subcases, as well as small displacement nonlinear analysis (ANALYSIS=NLSTAT) subcases, PBUSH1D and CBUSH1D are converted internally to the equivalent PBUSH (with PBUSHT, if necessary) and CBUSH.
5.This card is represented as a property in HyperMesh.
