*GRNOCONT,NAME=LOADLOC

Data format:

Four lines defined as follows:

NNO
I_1 ... I_NNO
DLLFileName
DLLProcName

Status :

Optional

Restriction :

For dynamic analyses only.

Purpose :

To define loads on a set of nodes updated at every time step

Details :

Parameter Description
NNO Number of nodes
I_1 ... I_NNO List of the identification numbers of the NNO nodes
DLLFileName DLL file name
DLLProcName DLL procedure name

Note

Procedure in the DLL exchanges the following information with DeepLines at the beginning of each timestep :

( t, dt, isize, matrot, posglo, vitnode, accnode, fnoload ) where

  • t : time when the dll is called (input to .dll)
  • dt : time step (input to .dll)
  • isize (=NNO): Number of nodes provided to the .dll (input to .dll)
  • matrot(9x isize ) : rotation matrix of the nodes, first line from 1 to 3, second line from 4 to 6 and third line from 7 to 9 (input to .dll) for first node and so on
  • Posglo(3x isize ) : position of the nodes (for first node and so on) in the global frame (input to .dll)
  • Vitnode(6x isize ) : velocity of the nodes (for first node and so on) in the global frame (input to .dll)
  • Accenode(6x isize ) : acceleration of the nodes (for first node and so on) in the global frame (input to .dll)
  • fnoload(6x isize ) : loads (force and moment) in local frame of the nodes (output from .dll)
