Required parameters
- ELEMENT SHIFT
-
Set this parameter equal to an integer that will be added to each of the
existing element numbers to define the element numbers of the elements being
created.
- OLD SET
-
Set this parameter equal to the name of the element set being copied. The
elements that are copied are those that belong to this set at the time this
option is encountered.
- SHIFT NODES
-
Set this parameter equal to an integer that will be added to each of the
node numbers of the existing elements to define the node numbers of the
elements being created.
Optional parameters
- NEW SET
-
Set this parameter equal to the name of the element set to which the
elements created by the operation will be assigned. If this parameter is
omitted, the newly created elements are not assigned to an element set.
- REFLECT
-
Include this parameter to modify the node numbering sequence on the elements
being created, which is necessary in some cases to avoid creating elements that
violate the
Abaqus
convention for counterclockwise element numbering. This parameter can be used
only with continuum elements and usually is required only when the nodes have
been generated using the
NCOPY option.
There are no data lines associated with this option.
