Load_case_control_data

 

Data Structure: Load_case_control_data

Description

Loading control data structure

Usage

Load_case_control_data     NUM=ival   where ival  is the data structure number

 

Description

Overview

The Load_case_control_data structure defines a list of load cases (i.e. Global_loads) together with their activation state. Only loads specified as active in the load case list are used in the simulation with all other load cases being considered inactive. Load cases may be activated or deactivated at the start of each simulation stage (control stage). The load case data structures (i.e. Global_loads) contain load data for all fields.

 

Notes

Only one Load_case_control_data structure may be specified but it may be respecified for each stage.

Once a load is deactivated it should not be re-activated at a later stage. This can however be achieved by specifying a new load case with the same load data.
