REPCASE

Subcase Information Entry

REPCASE – Repcase Selection

Description

The REPCASE command can be used in the Subcase Information section to indicate the start of a repeated subcase definition. This is used for multiple output requests of the same type for the same subcase.

Format

REPCASE = integer

Argument

Description

integer

Repcase identification number (RID)

No default (Integer > 0)

Comments

1.	Each REPCASE must be declared with a separate REPCASE header and a unique RID.

2.	REPCASE definitions should immediately follow the subcase that is duplicated. The REPCASE identification numbers should always be greater than the preceding subcase that is being duplicated (and all previous subcases).

3.	REPCASE is currently supported only for Linear Static Analysis.

4.	Example REPCASE usage is displayed below.

SUBCASE 1

SPC = 2

LOAD = 3

DISP(PUNCH)=1

STRESS(PUNCH)=2

REPCASE 2

DISP(PUNCH)=3

STRESS(PUNCH)=4
