*icoeffs()

Defines the independent nodes DOF coefficients for an equation load.

Syntax

*icoeffs (coeff1,coeff2,...,coeffN)

Type

Description

Defines the independent nodes coefficients for an equation load.

The *equation(), *inodes(), *idofs() and *icoeffs() blocks must be in the following order:

*equation()

*inodes()

*idofs()

*icoeffs()

Inputs

coeffs: The coefficients of each independent node DOF. Each DOF has a coefficient, even if it is not active for that node (DOFs per node). So there are independentnodesmax*6 values.; The order must match with the order of the independent nodes in the *inodes() command.

Example

To create an equation with ID 300, type 1, constant 2.5, independent nodes 5-7 with DOFs 1, 3 and 5 and coefficients of 0.5 for all DOFs, and dependent node 350 with DOF 3 and coefficient 2.0:

*equation(100,1,2.5,3,350,3,2.0,5)
*inodes(5,6,7)
*idofs(135,135,135)
*icoeffs(0.5,0.5,0.5,0.5,0.5,0.5,0.5,0.5,0.5,0.5,0.5,0.5,0.5,0.5,0.5,0.5,0.5,0.5)
