*TENTARGET
Data format:
A single line with 6 parameters, as follows:
IGR TENTARGET ERR STEPSTART STEPEND RELAX
Status :
Optional
Purpose :
To adjust the individual lengh of each element of a group of elements in order to reach a target tension along the group. This is done in static.
Details :
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| IGR | IGR : group number |
| NODE | Reference node where the calculations are performed |
| TENTARGET | Target tension (N) |
| ERR | Acceptable error on the target. An element length is not updated if is tension relative to the tension target is less than ERR*TENTARGET in absolute value |
| STEPSTART | Static step where the procedure starts |
| STEPEND | Static step where the procedure ends |
| RELAX | Relaxation coefficient on updated the length : New_length = RELAX*Old_Lengh + (1-RELAX)*Projected_Length |
