SEINTPNT

Subcase Information Entry The SEINTPNT command can be used to select a set of interior DOF of superelements to be converted to exterior DOF.

Format

SEINTPNT = option

Example

SEINTPNT = 100
BEGIN BULK
SET,100,GRIDC,
+,10643,T1,10643,T2,10643,T3
GRID 10643 1 234 55 322

Argument Options Description
option <SID>

No default

SID
ID of a Bulk card SET of type GRIDC

Comments

  1. SEINTPNT can be used when CMS super elements in .h3d files are present in residual runs. After the conversion, these DOF are part of the analysis DOF and can be used as connection points, load DOF, response DOF during optimization.
  2. SEINTPNT is not supported for fluid grids.
  3. GRID point information for interior grids (that are to be converted to exterior grids) should be included in the GRID Bulk Data Entry, which in turn should be included in the solver deck if SEINTPNT is used.
