Comments

  1. All surface segments must belong to 2D elements (shell element or a triangular shell element). 1D elements are ignored in /SURF/PROP. With 3D elements, an additional keyword must be specified: see /SURF/PROP/EXT and /SURF/PROP/ALL.
  2. A surface cannot be defined using Madymo surfaces.
  3. A surface cannot be defined by associating a hyper-ellipsoid and another type of surface.
  4. If item_ID is negative, the surface normals are inverted.
