    FEMAP API Programming

    Does someone know the API program structure that would accomplish the same function within the FEMAP environment with renumbering solids? The issue I'm having is how to re-associate the surface IDs with the renumbered ID for the solid when using feRenumber in an API. Thanks in advance,

    Multi-Body Load in Nastran

    Hi GregLocock, Well, I can't really go into details of this model . . . Anyway, I'm trying to find a more reasonable method to apply different G-loads to different parts of a structure, which I've been told that can be accomplished with other codes, such as Abaqus and LS DYNA. I've assumed...

    Multi-Body Load in Nastran

    rb1957, Sorry - I'm not all to familar with super elements . . . Therefore, I can't say ya or na if I can utilize this element type for my model, but thanks for the suggestion. I'll take your idea into consideration, doing some reading up on super elements, and determine if this element type...

    Multi-Body Load in Nastran

    Is there a method to apply different body loads to different areas of an FE model for a linear static run using NEi or MSC NASTRAN? So far, I've used a brute force method by scaling the density values of the mat cards based on the higher proposed body load, and perform the analysis run using...
