Linear Static Analysis (Sol 101)

Mass Multiplier (WTMASS)

This value will be multiplied to the structural mass matrix when the mass of the structure is calculated.

Rotation Stiffness Adjustment (K6ROT)

It specifies the stiffness to be added to the normal rotation for Shell and Tri elements. The default is 0, but you can change its value between 1 to 100 to suppress singularities for geometric nonlinear analysis.

Max Ratio (MAXRATIO)

The default value for the MAXRATIO is 1.0E7.

Coupled Mass (COUPMASS)

The default value is -1.

Constrain Singularities (AUTOSPC)

AUTOSPC specifies the action to take when singularities exist in the stiffness matrix. If enabled, the singularities will be constrained automatically.

Grid Weights (GRDPNT)

This option will execute the grid point weight generator. It specifies the identification number of the grid point to be used as a reference point.

Single Point Constraints (SPC)

Sets this value (positive integer) for the solution. It will set the same number of Single Point Constraint in the input data form.

Load Set (LOAD)

Assigns an external static load set (positive integer) to the solution. It will set the same number of Load Constraints in the input data form.

Temperature Set (TEMP)

Selects the temperature set to be used in either material property calculations or thermal loading in heat transfer and structural analysis.

Output Requests

These output requests (Displacement, Stress, Strain, Element Strain Energy) can be set to ALL or NONE.
