5.11.2. Input and Output Meshes

SourceFile = STRINGDefine the name and, if needed, the path of the source file, (usually a *.dynain file).
TargetFile = STRINGDefine the name and, if needed, the path of the target file. This should be an LS-DYNA mesh.
MappingResult = STRING

Define the result filename. The mapping result is written to this newly-generated file.

OrientationFile = HISV

Nodes

Define this flag to enable transfer of orientations. This notifies the application that orientation data is stored within history variables (HISV). Alternatively, the orientation can be derived from the element nodes (Nodes). See also the BIAX flag under Mapping Options below. The direction from node #1 to node #2 in the order of input is considered. This method may yield accurate results if the mesh was well-aligned initially.
TemperatureFile = STRINGFile that contains temperatures on nodes, as *INITIAL TEMPERATURE NODE.
ElementSetFile = STRING

File that contains specific element sets considered for mapping. For example, an element set declaration for additional ICP transformations

TTInterpolationFile = STRINGDefine the filename for the output of through-thickness interpolation results from the source mesh when performing FE-based averaging and interpolation methods. To actually output this file, you must set the WriteTTInterpolationFile flag (see below).
AddEleHISVFile# = STRINGDefine the name of a file carrying additional element histories. Multiple files can be defined. The first 10 digits of the string should hold the element ID, the following 10 digits should carry some arbitray value, interpreted as an additional history variable at element level.
LookupTable# = STRING

Filename for lookup tables. Values within a single line must be space-delimited. The Envyo application allows history variable lookup based on these user-defined lookup tables, as described in Equation parser.

Following the lookup table command, you must define the columns to be considered for variable lookup. See the example in Equation parser.

TransformedMeshFile = STRING

Specify the output filename for the transformed mesh. This option is intended solely for postprocessing of the transformation. For additional details, refer to the Transformation Options section below.

Available source and result file formats are listed below:

SourceFileFormat = LS-DYNA

The source file format. The preferred format is LS-DYNA.

TargetFileFormat = LS-DYNA

ESI-PC

The target file format. The preferred format is LS-DYNA.

ResultFileFormat = LS-DYNA

The result file format. The only format available is LS-DYNA.
