Comments
- Spotweld cluster is defined with the /CLUSTER card.
- Use parameter Ifail=1 in /CLUSTER for output of FAIL variable.
- Available names are listed in the
two tables above.
In the first table, TH-variables are listed. If a TH-variable is requested, this variable is written.
In the second table, other variable groups are listed. If a variable group is requested, all the associated TH-variables are written at once.
