Required parameters
- NAME
-
Set this parameter equal to a label that will be used to refer to the
integrated output section.
- SURFACE
-
Set this parameter equal to the name of the surface (see
Element-Based Surface Definition)
to be associated with the integrated output section.
Optional parameters
- ORIENTATION
-
Set this parameter equal to the name of an orientation definition (Orientations)
to define the initial coordinate system for the section. This initial system
can be further modified by using the PROJECT ORIENTATION parameter.
If this parameter is omitted, the global coordinate system is used.
- POSITION
-
This parameter is relevant only if the REF NODE parameter is included.
Set POSITION=INPUT (default) if the location of the reference node is to be
defined by the user.
Set POSITION=CENTER if the reference node is to be relocated from the user-defined
location to the center of the surface in the initial configuration.
- PROJECT ORIENTATION
-
Set PROJECT ORIENTATION=NO (default) if the initial coordinate system of the section
should not be projected onto the section surface. If the ORIENTATION parameter is included, this choice results in an initial
coordinate system that matches the defined orientation. If an orientation is
not specified, the initial coordinate system matches the global coordinate
system.
Set PROJECT ORIENTATION=YES if the initial coordinate system of the section should be
modified by projecting onto the section surface using the average normal to the
surface. If an orientation is not specified, the global coordinate system is
projected onto the section surface.
- REF NODE
-
Set this parameter equal to either the node number of the integrated output
section reference node or to the name of a node set containing the reference
node. If the name of a node set is chosen, the node set must contain exactly
one node.
- REF NODE MOTION
-
This parameter is relevant only if the REF NODE parameter is included.
Set REF NODE MOTION=INDEPENDENT (default) if the motion of the reference node is not based on
the average motion of the surface.
Set REF NODE MOTION=AVERAGE TRANSLATION if the reference node must translate with the average
translation of the surface. This choice is relevant only if the reference node
is not connected to the rest of the model.
Set REF NODE MOTION=AVERAGE if the reference node must both translate and rotate with the
average motion of the surface. This choice is relevant only if the reference
node is not connected to the rest of the model.
