*DEFINE_COORDINATE_SYSTEM
Specifies a local coordinate system with three points: one at the local origin, one on the local x-axis and one on the local x-y plane.
Card1
CID = ID of the coordinate system, must be unique.
XO = global X-coordinate of the origin.
YO = global Y-coordinate of the origin.
ZO = global Z-coordinate of the origin.
XL = global X-coordinate of a point on the local x-axis.
YL = global Y-coordinate of a point on the local x-axis.
ZL = global Z-coordinate of a point on the local x-axis.
Card2
XP = global X-coordinate of a point on the local x-y plane.
YP = global Y-coordinate of a point on the local x-y plane.
ZP = global Z-coordinate of a point on the local x-y plane.
*DEFINE_VECTOR
Specifies a vector by defining the coordinates of two points. This keyword defines the local coordinate system with respect to which a *BOUNDARY_PRESCRIBED_MOTION is prescribed. The ID of this coordinate system is specified with parameter CID.
Card
VID = ID of the vector.
XT = 0, the local x-coordinate of the origin of the coordinate system specified with CID below.
YT = 0, the local y-coordinate of the origin of the coordinate system specified with CID below.
ZT = 0, the local z-coordinate of the origin of the coordinate system specified with CID below.
XH = 1 if the vector has a component in the x direction of the coordinate system specified with CID. Otherwise, this is set to 0.
YH = 1 if the vector has a component in the y direction of the coordinate system specified with CID. Otherwise, this is set to 0.
ZH = 1 if the vector has a component in the z direction of the coordinate system specified with CID. Otherwise, this is set to 0.
CID = ID of the coordinate system used to define the vector. If no coordinate system is specified this parameter is set to 0 to specify the global coordinate system.
