Description
Creates an RBE3 element. The attached set may be created from a given mark of dependent nodes while the RBE3 element is created.
Inputs
- entity_type
- The type of entity on the mark containing the independent entities. Valid values are nodes and sets.
- mark_id
- The ID of the mark containing the independent nodes or sets of nodes. Valid values are 1 and 2.
- independent_dofs
- The ID of the integer array containing the degrees of freedom for which each respective independent node of the element is active (any of the digits 1-6), created using *createarray. Must be set to 1.
- dof_size
- The size of the independent_dofs array.
- independent_weights
- The ID of the double array containing the weight for each respective independent node, created using *createdoublearray. Must be set to 1.
- weight_size
- The size of the independent_weights array.
- dependent_node
- The dependent node of the element. If set to 0, the dependent node will be auto-created at the centroid of the independent nodes.
- dof
- The degree of freedom code for which the dependent node of the element is active (any of the digits 1-6).
- weight
- The weight assigned to the dependent node.
- attach_set
- If set to 1, the attached set may be created from a given mark of dependent nodes while the RBE3 element is created.
