Scalar Damper Property and Connection to Scalar Points
Description: Defines a scalar damper element that is connected only to scalar points and without reference to a material or property entry.
Format:
Example:
| Field | Definition | Type | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| EID | Element identification number. | Integer > 0 | Required |
| B | Value of scalar damper. | Real | Required |
| S1, S2 | Scalar point identification numbers of connection points. | Integer ≥ 0 | See Remark 2 |
Remarks:
- Element identification numbers must be unique with respect to all other element identification numbers.
- S1 or S2 may be blank indicating a constrained coordinate.
- When this entry is used in heat transfer analysis, it generates a lumped heat capacity.
