Description
Create apply mass connectors at the specified location with certain rules, and realize them using a specified config type, mass value and distribution type.
Inputs
- entitytype
- The entity type serving as the location of apply mass connector(s). Valid options are nodes and points.
- entitymark
- Mark of the location points or nodes.
- linkentitytype
- Link types:
- Nodes
- Elems
- Comps
- hm_tag
- linkentitymark
- Mark of the entities of links.
- ce_rules
- Rule to specify how a link entity is to be added to a connector:
- 0 - None
- 1 - User selected
- 2 - Use name
- ce_le_rule
- Rule that specifies how an entity is to be remembered by the connector:
- 0 - None
- 1 - User ID
- 2 - Use name
- tolerance
- Add entities as links only with in the given tolerance from the specified location.
- num_ents
- The number of links.
- -1 - All entities within tolerance will be added as links.
- config
- Apply mass type:
- 1100 - Point mass
- 1101 - Rigid mass
- 1102 - Rigidlink mass
- 1103 - rbe3 mass
- mass
- Value of the applied mass.
- distribution_type
- Apply mass distribution type:
- 0 - Divide mass by nodes.
- 1 - Apply mass to all nodes.
- 2 - Divide mass by area.
- 3 - Unit area.
- param1
- For future use (must be 0).
Examples
This example creates 2 apply mass connectors at nodes 1 and 2, using nodes as links, adding nodes as links to the connectors using "proximity" tolerance = 10.0, and setting the remember rule to "none". It also realizes connectors using "point mass" (1100), "mass value" = 100.0, distributing the mass to the link nodes using the "divide mass by nodes" method (1).
