Definitions
| Field | Contents | SI Unit Example |
|---|---|---|
| BMID | Barrier mesh
identification number. Referenced from a DSHAPE Bulk Data Entry. No default (Integer > 0) |
|
| G# | Grid point identification
number of connection points. G1,
G2, and G3 are required to
define tria faces, G4 is required to define quad
faces. No default (Integer ≥ 0, all unique) |
Comments
- Grid points used in the definition of BMFACE entries cannot be used to define structural elements.
