1.	A subset is a non-homogeneous element assembly.

2.	A subset contains a set of parts and (or) a set of subsets. Subsets can be structured to generate a hierarchical model.

3.	The subset to which a part belongs is defined in the /PART option.

4.	The subsets belonging to one subset are defined with the /SUBSET option.

5.	Each subset ID referenced by /PART option or by /SUBSET option has to be defined with a /SUBSET option. The same subset_ID can only be referenced once for all /SUBSET options.

6.	Subsets not referenced in any /SUBSET option list are children of the global model subset.

7.	The main difference between a subset and an element group (/GRSHEL, /GRBRIC) is that a subset hierarchy defines a complete non-redundant model organization. Elements groups only cover one part of the model, and some elements can belong to several groups.

8.	The number of levels in a hierarchical organization is not limited.
