*absorbloads

Absorb classical loads to engineering loads.

Syntax

*absorbloads load_collector_id ?disable_value_comparison? ?renumber_flag? ?compression_status?

HyperMesh Tcl Modify Command

Absorb classical loads to engineering loads.

load_collector_id: The ID of the load collector to absorb. If specified as 0, all loads in all load collectors are absorbed.
disable_value_comparison: Optional argument specifiying whether value comparison is disabled. Value comparison determines if a given non-uniform load can manifest in a uniform representation. Valid values are:; 0 - Value comparison is enabled (default); 1 - Value comparison is disabled
renumber_flag: Option to renumber after absorb:; 0 - Do not renumber (default); 1 - Renumber
compression_status: Option to honor the compression status (e.g. certain loads may be on a set or on the actual entitiy, and this state may be honored or expanded). Valid values are:; 0 - Do not honor source state (default); 1 - Honor source state

Absorb and renumber all loads in the model:

*absorbloads 0 0 1 0

Absorb all loads in load collector 5:

*absorbloads 5

Absorb all loads in the model and honor the compression state:

*absorbloads 0 0 0 1

Incorrect usage results in a Tcl error. To detect errors, you can use the catch command:

if { [ catch {command_name...} ] } {
   # Handle error
}
