VectorGlobalToLocal

Transforms vectors relative to the global system to a local system.

Inputs

src
A vector value table.
nodes
A node entity table.
coords
A coordinate vector value table.
systems
A system entity table.
elemSysMethod
The element system method for the model. Valid values are "Bisect" (default value) or "Midpoint" (to be used for all Radioss models).

Outputs

answer
A vector value table.

Comments

  • All vectors in coords must be relative to the global system.
  • All vectors in src must be relative to the global system.
  • nodes and src tables must be in the same pool.
  • elemSysMethod is only applicable for Element-bound vectors and is specific to quadrilateral elements only.

Syntax
