Definitions

Field Contents SI Unit Example
SID Identification number of the support set. 1

No default (Integer > 0)

ID#
ID#
Grid point identification number.

No default (Integer > 0)

GSETID#
Identification number of a SET of grid points. In this case, the GSET continuation line should be specified.

No default (Integer > 0)

C# Component numbers.

No default (Any unique combination, with no embedded blanks, of the integers 1 through 6 for grid points; or 0 for scalar points)

GSET Indicates that the G/GSETID field is identified as a SET of Grid points at which the SUPORT1 constraints are applied.

Comments

  1. SUPORT1 Bulk Data Entries will not be used in the model unless specifically selected in the Subcase Information section by the SUPORT1 Subcase Information Entry.
  2. SUPORT Bulk Data Entries are applied in all subcases.
  3. The degrees-of-freedom specified on SUPORT1 will be combined with those on the SUPORT entry.
  4. The SUPORT/SUPORT1 entries contain a single "P", spelling them as "SUPPORT/1" using two P's is incorrect.
  5. Degrees-of-freedom specified on this entry cannot be defined as dependent degrees-of-freedom on rigid body elements or constrained using SPCi entries or PS on the GRID entries.
  6. This card is represented as a constraint load in HyperMesh.
