*realizeentity - Memberpanels

Inputs

connectpanel=<value>
The flag to know if realized panel should be connected to members and memberjoints legs using CBUSH elements. Valid values are 1 and 0.
elemtype=<value>
The type of 2D elements to be created. Valid values are:
0 - Trias elements
1 - Quads elements
2 - Mixed elements
3 - R-Trias elements
4 - Quads only
elemsize=<value>
The size of the 1D elements to be created.
id=<memberpanel_id>
Valid member panel ID to realize.
k1=<value>
Nominal stiffness value in direction 1 for CBUSH.
k2=<value>
Nominal stiffness value in direction 2 for CBUSH.
k3=<value>
Nominal stiffness value in direction 3 for CBUSH.
k4=<value>
Nominal stiffness value in direction 4 for CBUSH.
k5=<value>
Nominal stiffness value in direction 5 for CBUSH.
k6=<value>
Nominal stiffness value in direction 6 for CBUSH.
refentitymark=<mark_id>
The ID of the mark containing the realized entities defining the boundaries to create the panel. Valid values are 1 and 2.
refentitytype=<value>
The type of entities in mark to define boundaries. Valid values are elements and components.
reusemeshcontrols=<value>
The flag to know if the mesh controls of the existing panel should be reused or if provided element type and element size should be used instead. Valid values are 1 and 0. If set to 1, the meshing inputs will be fetched from existing mesh control stored within the solver representation that is assigned to the memberpanel.

Examples

To realize a member panel from members components:

*createmark components 1 2-5
*realizeentity memberpanels id=1 refentitytype=comps refentitymark=1
connectpanel=0 elemtype=2 elemsize=40
