ISLAVE IMAST ITYP

Status :

Optional

Purpose :

To define a kinematic dependency relationship between some nodes

Parameter	Description
ISLAVE	Identification number of the slave node
IMAST	Identification number of the master node
ITYP	If ityp = 2, the master node and its related slave behave altogether as a rigid body.

Note

'Slave' nodes displacements entirely depend on the movement of their 'master'.
An example of application is the study of an anchoring systems where cables are fixed at different points of a floating structure. Each of these points are linked to a unique master node where the motion or the applied
