Option
Option to be applied:
DEFINE
—
Mark tabular array as a cyclic-loading table.
CYCNUM
—
Total number of cycles.
CYCTIME
—
Cycle time.
TSTEP
—
Enable time-point-range time-stepping.
OUTR
—
Select time points for output.
MSUB
—
Multicycle cyclic-loading.
LTAB
—
Defined table time points do not dictate time-stepping, and the predictor is not disabled at defined table time points.
Input1
Additional input according to the specified Option:
Option
Input1 =
DEFINE
BEGIN – Begin marking tabular array as cyclic load table. END – End marking tabular array as cyclic load table. CYCNUM Total number of cycles. CYCTIME Time length of each cycle. TSTEP --- OUTR Set cycle frequency for results. Default = 1. MSUB Number of subcycles in a multicycle cyclic loading analysis. LTAB ---
