Comments

  1. Only one XHIST entry can be present for each subcase. It can only be used in subcases that contain an ANALYSIS = EXPDYN entry.
  2. If the SID referenced by the XHIST Subcase Information Entry matches with the SID defined for an XHISTADD Bulk Data Entry, the information on this entry alone is selected. However, if no XHISTADD Bulk Data Entry has the referenced SID defined, then any XHIST Bulk Data Entries that have this SID defined will be selected.
