*SET_PART_ADD

LS-DYNA Input Interface KeywordThis keyword defines a set of parts from a list of existing part sets.

Format


(1)	(2)	(3)	(4)	(5)	(6)	(7)	(8)
*SET_PART_ADD
`set_ID`
`set_ID1`	`set_ID2`	`set_ID3`	`set_ID4`	`set_ID5`	`set_ID6`	`set_ID7`	`set_ID8`

Definition


Field	Contents	SI Unit Example
`set_ID`	Part set identifier. (Integer)
`set_ID1` - `set_ID8`	Part Set IDs, 8 per line. (Integer) If a `set_ID(n)` is negative, all the sets in the range, `set_ID(n-1)` through `\|set_ID(n)\|` are included in the set.

Comments

This keyword maps to /SET/GENERAL.
The option “_TITLE” can be added to the end of this keyword. When “_TITLE” is included, an extra 80 characters long line is added after the keyword input line which allows an entity title to be defined.
