DELAY

Dynamic Load Time Delay

Description: This entry is used in conjunction with the TLOAD1 and TLOAD2 entries and defines the time delay term in the equations of the dynamic loading function.

Format:

Example:

Field	Definition	Type	Default
SID	Identification number of the DELAY set.	Integer > 0	Required
Pi	Grid point identification number.	Integer > 0	Required
Ci	Component number of global coordinate (up to six unique digits may be placed in the field with no embedded blanks).	0 ≤ Integer ≤ 6	Required
Ti	Time delay for designated point Pi and component Ci.	Real

Remarks:

1. One or two dynamic load time delays may be defined on a single entry.
2. SID must also be referenced on a TLOAD1 or TLOAD2 entry. Refer to these entry descriptions for the formulas that define how the time delay is used.
3. A DAREA and/or LSEQ entry should be used to define a load at Pi and Ci.
