SPCFORCES

Single-Point Forces of Constraint Set Selection

Description: Requests single-point constraint force vector output.

Format:

Example:

SPCFORCES = 5

Option Definition Type Default
PRINT Single-point constraint forces will be output to both the Model Results Output File and the results neutral file system. Character
PLOT Single-point constraint forces will be output only to the results neutral file system. Character
PUNCH Single-point constraint forces will be output additionally to the Model Results Punch File. Character
REAL or IMAG Requests complex output in rectangular format (real and imaginary). Character
PHASE Requests complex output in polar format (magnitude and phase). Phase output is in degrees. Character
PSDF Power spectral density function, RMS, and number of positive crossings output request. Character
ATOC Autocorrelation function output request. Character
RALL Both PSDF and ATOC will be output. Character
ALL Single-point constraint forces for all grid points will be output. Character
n Set identification of previously appearing SET command. Only single-point constraint forces for grid points whose identification numbers appear on this SET command will be output. Integer > 0
NONE Single point constraint forces will not be output. Character

Remarks:

  1. SPCFORCES output is in the global coordinate system. (See CD field on the GRID Bulk Data entry in Section 4, Bulk Data.)
