*WRK

*WRK, Num
Sets the active workspace number.

APDL: Matrix Operations

Argument Descriptions

Num: Number of the active memory workspace for APDLMath vector and matrices. All the following APDLMath vectors and matrices will belong to this memory workspace, until the next call to the *WRK command. By default, all the APDLMath objects belong to workspace number 1.

Notes

This feature enables you to associate a set of vector and matrices in a given memory workspace, so that you can easily manage the free step:

*VEC,V,D,ALLOC,5		! V belongs to the default Workspace 1

*WRK,2					! Set the active workspace as the number 2

*VEC,W,D,IMPORT,FULL,file.full,RHS	! W belongs to the Workspace 2
*SMAT,K,D,IMPORT,FULL,file.full,STIFF	! K belongs to the Workspace 2 
*DMAT,M,ALLOC,10,10 			! M belongs to the Workspace 2 
… 
*FREE,WRK,2			! W, K and M are deleted, but not V  

*PRINT,V

This feature can be useful to free all the temporary APDLMath variables inside a MACRO in one call.
