MODEL

I/O Options and Subcase Information Entry The MODEL command can be used in the I/O Options section to request output of only a subset of the model and related results for H3D and OUTPUT results files as well as for CMS superelements.

Format

MODEL = elset, gridset, rigidset

Definitions

Argument	Options	Description
`elset`	<SID, PLOTEL, ALL, NONE> Default (analysis run) = ALL Default (CMS SE creation) = NONE	SID ID of an element SET. A set of elements that describe the subset of the model for which results and model information is to be output. All GRID and SPOINT associated with these elements will also be output. PLOTEL All PLOTELs in the model and their associated GRID will be output. ALL All elements in the model and their associated GRID will be output. NONE No elements.
`gridset`	<SID, ALL, NONE>	SID SID of a SET. A set of grids to be added to the subset associated with the preceding `elset` field. ALL All grids. NONE (Default) No grids are added to the subset described by the preceding `elset` field.
`rigidset`	<RIGID/ALL, NORIGID/NONE, SID> Default (analysis run) =RIGID/ALL Default (CMS SE creation) = NORIGID/NONE	RIGID/ALL All rigid elements and their associated GRID will be output. NORIGID/NONE No rigid elements will be output. SID ID of a rigid element SET. A set of rigid elements that describe the subset of the model for which model information is to be output. All GRID and SPOINT associated with these rigid elements will also be output.

Description

elset

<SID, PLOTEL, ALL, NONE>

Default (analysis run) = ALL

Default (CMS SE creation) = NONE

SID: ID of an element SET. A set of elements that describe the subset of the model for which results and model information is to be output. All GRID and SPOINT associated with these elements will also be output.
PLOTEL: All PLOTELs in the model and their associated GRID will be output.
ALL: All elements in the model and their associated GRID will be output.
NONE: No elements.

gridset

<SID, ALL, NONE>

SID: SID of a SET. A set of grids to be added to the subset associated with the preceding elset field.
ALL: All grids.
NONE (Default): No grids are added to the subset described by the preceding elset field.

rigidset

Default (analysis run) =RIGID/ALL

Default (CMS SE creation) = NORIGID/NONE

RIGID/ALL: All rigid elements and their associated GRID will be output.
NORIGID/NONE: No rigid elements will be output.
SID: ID of a rigid element SET. A set of rigid elements that describe the subset of the model for which model information is to be output. All GRID and SPOINT associated with these rigid elements will also be output.

Comments

For CMS superelements output in *.h3d format, only the ASET, BSET, or CSET degrees of freedom are output when the MODEL data is not present. When the MODEL data is present, the .h3d file contains the ASET, BSET, or CSET degrees of freedom and what is specified on the MODEL data.
In addition to the results output, the MODEL data controls the portion of the model that is written to the .op2 and .h3d files.
The gridset always contains the ASET, BSET, or CSET grids along with any grids specified on the model data. In addition, all grids associated with the elements in the elset are included in the gridset. The same is true for grids associated with the rigid elements if RIGID is specified.
