EXPASS
EXPASS,
Key, --, --,
KeyStat
Specifies an expansion pass of an analysis.
KeyExpansion pass key:
OFF
—
No expansion pass will be performed (default).
ON
—
An expansion pass will be performed.
--,--Unused fields.
KeyStatStatic correction vectors key:
ON
—
Include static correction vectors in the expanded displacements (default).
OFF
—
Do not include static correction vectors in the expanded displacements.
Notes
Specifies that an expansion pass of a modal, substructure, buckling, transient, or harmonic analysis is to be performed.
Note: This separate solution pass requires an explicit FINISH from the preceding analysis and reentry into SOLUTION.
The KeyStat argument is applicable to the expansion pass of a
substructure analysis, and to the expansion pass of a component mode synthesis (CMS) analysis
when the CMS method is fixed-interface or free-interface. For a substructure analysis, the
static correction vectors are the first terms of Equation 15–134 in
the Mechanical APDL Theory Reference. For a CMS analysis, the static correction vectors are the third terms of
Equation 15–158.
This command is also valid in PREP7.
