MONSUMT

Bulk Data Entry Defines a new monitor result that is the sum of existing monitor results.

The existing monitor points do not need to be the same type but must be of a similar type. The results are printed to the .monpnt file.

Definitions

Field Contents SI Unit Example
NAME Character string identifying the monitor point.

No default (Character, a maximum of 8 characters)

LABEL A character string that identifies and labels the monitor point.

Default = blank (Character, a maximum of 56 characters, fields 3 through 9)

AXIS The component axis of the newly created monitor point into which the summed quantity is stored.

(Integer > 0, up to six unique digits (0 < digit ≤ 6) may be placed in the field with no embedded blanks)

CP The identification number of a coordinate system in which the input (X,Y,Z) coordinates are defined.

Default = 0 (Integer > 0)

X, Y, Z The coordinates in the CP coordinate system about which the loads are monitored.

Default = 0.0 (Real)

CD The identification number of a coordinate system in which the resulting load components are output.

Default = Coordinate system specified by the CP field (Integer > 0)

MTYPEij Monitor type to be merged.

No default (AMONONT1, SMONONT1, MONPNT3)

NAMEij Name of the monitored quantity that is summed.

Comments

  1. The LABEL is a 56 character string that should be unique.
  2. The result of the MONSUMT entry is to create new monitor point(s) as:

    Set of partial rigid body vectors for the locations of the monitor points being summed, with the origin at the X, Y, Z location.
  3. The merged monitor points must be of a similar type. "Similar" types are defined as force and moment summation monitor points: AMONPNT1, SMONPNT1, MONPNT3.
  4. For MONPNT1s, the MTYPij can be aerodynamic or structural. MTYPij=AMONPNT1 designates aerodynamic, while SMONPNT1 designates a structural monitor point.
  5. If multiple types are specified on a MONSUMT, the resulting entry is of a type that appears on the MONSUMT with the following order of precedence: SMONPNT1 (structural MONPNT1), MONPNT3, AMONPNT1 (aerodynamic MONPNT1). For example, an AMONPNT1 (aerodynamic MONPNT1) and a MONPNT3 appearing on the same entry results in a MONPNT3 regardless of which appears first. If the NEWAXISj field indicates a single output, the AXISij fields must reference a single input, but it can be any value from 1 to 6. There may be as many as 6 AXISij and COEFij for each referenced NAMEij.
