(1) Duration of time for which the user requires listing file output of the tether motions, forces and stress after the tether goes slack.
This data record controls the listing file time history output for installed tethers. It should be used when the user ONLY wants tether time history output when the tether goes slack. The TPRV data record in Data Category 18, which requests listing file output at specified time intervals, should be omitted as it OVERRIDES this data record.
The user specifies the time for which the time history of tether motion, forces and stresses should be output to the listing file when the tether goes slack; for example, if 20 secs is input, then printing starts when the tether goes slack and continues every time step for 20 seconds. It is then switched off until the tether goes slack again.
This data record does not affect the output to the graphics backing file or statistics post-processing.
