    *AUBC: Automatic Boundary Conditions Switch

    *AUBC

    This option can be used in conjunction with *ADAP for manually generated meshes using *INPU. Boundary conditions are automatically applied to all automatically generated (using *AUTM) meshes.

    When *AUBC is used, the surface convection defined by the *CONV and the energy defined by the *LSRF card is used without boundary condition definition in PATRAN.

    Required Cards: *INPU
