User Sets

Multiple user sets of elements can be defined by providing a csv file, which contains the element/node IDs.

<UserSet>
<UserSetFile entity_type="element">  C:/Users/xyz/Documents/Fatigue/RunHistory/Run1/CriticalElementSet.csv </UserSetFile>
  </UserSet>

For each user set, a <UserSetFile> file element should be provided with attribute entity_type=”element”/”node”.

A valid user set file contains the list of all the element/node IDs in the .csv file.
