Description: Defines the following lists:

  1. Identification numbers (grid point, element, or mode) for processing and output requests.
  2. Output frequencies for frequency response problems or output times for transient response problems using OFREQUENCY and OTIME commands, respectively.

Format:

Examples:

SET 15 = 7

SET 55 = 1 THRU 200000

SET 22 = 1, 5, 7, 8, 9, 15 THRU 66, 77, 79, 106 THRU 400,

544, 625, 1005 THRU 2067, 3005, 4020

SET 12 = 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0

SET 35 = 1.07-2, 8.05, 16.145, 2.456+2

Option Definition Type Default
n Set identification number. Integer > 0 Required
i1, i2, etc. Identification numbers. Identification numbers that do not exist are ignored. Integer > 0
i3 THRU i4 Identification number range (i3 < i4). Identification numbers that do not exist are ignored. Integer > 0
ALL All identification numbers are included. Character
r1, r2, etc. Output frequencies or times. The nearest solution frequency or time will be output. Real
ALL All frequencies or times are included. Character

Remarks:

  1. Multiple SET commands with the same set identification number are allowed and will be treated as one set.
  2. A comma at the end of the command signifies a continuation.
  3. A THRU symbol may not be used for a continuation without the ending identification number.
