CMASS4

Bulk Data Entry Defines a scalar mass element that is connected only to scalar points, without reference to a property entry.

Field	Contents	SI Unit Example
`EID`	Unique element identification number. No default (Integer > 0)
`M`	Scalar mass value. No default (Real)
`S1`, `S2`	Scalar point identification numbers. `S1` or `S2`, but not both, may be blank or zero, indicating a constrained coordinate. This is the usual case. Default = 0 (Integer ≥ 0; `S1` ≠ `S2`)

SI Unit Example

EID

Unique element identification number.

No default (Integer > 0)

M

Scalar mass value.

No default (Real)

S1, S2

Scalar point identification numbers.

S1 or S2, but not both, may be blank or zero, indicating a constrained coordinate. This is the usual case.

Default = 0 (Integer ≥ 0; S1 ≠ S2)

Only one scalar mass element may be defined on a single entry.
A scalar point specified on this entry does not need to be defined on a SPOINT Bulk Data Entry.
This single entry completely defines the element since no material or geometric properties are required.
Scalar mass elements are ignored in heat transfer analysis.
