Field

Contents

part_ID

Part identifier

(Integer, maximum 10 digits)

Np

Number of particles

(Integer)

1.	This option is useful when using SPH Inlet conditions. It automatically defines inactive particles related to the part given by its identifier "part_ID".

2.	The Np particles and supporting nodes are created.

3.	In SPMD parallel version, Np particles and supporting nodes are created for each SPMD domain.

4.	These particles are deactivated at time =0. A deactivated particle does not interact with the other particles (stresses and internal energy of the particle are set to 0).

5.	These particles are provided in order to be activated by the inlet conditions, if necessary.

6.	The particles automatically created through the options /SPH/RESERVE get identifiers going from the maximum identifier of the particles defined through the options /SPHCEL, plus 1.

7.	The supporting nodes automatically created through the options /SPH/RESERVE get identifiers going from the maximum identifier of the nodes defined through the options /NODE, plus 1.
