Support_data

 

Data Structure: Support_data

Description

Prescribed fixity conditions for all fields

Usage

Support_data     NUM=ival   where ival  is the data structure number

 

Description

Overview

The Support_data structure defines the entities which have some or all of their freedoms prescribed. Prescribed fixity conditions may be specified for each field variable in the simulation; i.e. displacement, pore pressure and temperature. While the Support_data identifies that specific freedoms are prescribed, if the prescribed value is non-zero then the magnitude of the prescribed value must be defined using the Global_loads data structure. An example with typical definition of a support data structure for a 3D model with assignments performed via geometry sets is shown below.

Notes

One Support_data structure may be defined but it can be respecified for each stage.

If non-zero prescribed values are specified using the Global_loads data structure the relevant entities must also be defined as fixed (prescribed) using Support_data.
