Include problem, working when inserting the include file not working in include file

[n3l3]

Hi all,

trying to define some shell elements with to inp files:

model:
[...]
10193, 10194, 10195, 10196, 10197, 10198, 10199, 10200
*Surface, type=ELEMENT, name="Contacto Exterior"
"_Contacto Exterior_SPOS", SPOS
*INCLUDE, INPUT=secciones.inp
*End Part

and the include file, secciones.inp:
*Shell Section, elset=almas, material=Acero
0.016, 5
*Shell Section, elset=alma1, material=Acero
0.016, 5
*Shell Section, elset=alma2, material=Acero
0.016, 5
*Shell Section, elset=alma3, material=Acero
0.016, 5
*Shell Section, elset=diagonal, material=Acero
0.016, 5
*Shell Section, elset=alainf1, material=Acero
0.012, 5
*Shell Section, elset=alainf2, material=Acero
0.012, 5
*Shell Section, elset=alainf3, material=Acero
0.012, 5
*Shell Section, elset=alasup, material=Acero
0.012, 5
*Shell Section, elset=almarig, material=Acero
0.010, 5
*Shell Section, elset=alarig, material=Acero
0.016, 5

I got the error in the dat file:

***WARNING: NOT ALL THE NODES THAT HAVE BEEN ADJUSTED WERE PRINTED. SPECIFY
*PREPRINT,CONTACT=YES FOR COMPLETE PRINTOUT.
*solidsection, elset=ASSEMBLY_PATIN-1__PICKEDSET6, material=ACERO
*solidsection, elset=ASSEMBLY_PATIN-1__PICKEDSET7, material=NEOPRENO
*solidsection, elset=ASSEMBLY_PATIN-2__PICKEDSET6, material=ACERO
*solidsection, elset=ASSEMBLY_PATIN-2__PICKEDSET7, material=NEOPRENO
*shellsection, elset=ASSEMBLY_VIGA-1_ALMAS, material=ACERO
*shellsection, elset=ASSEMBLY_VIGA-1_ALMA1, material=ACERO
*shellsection, elset=ASSEMBLY_VIGA-1_ALMA2, material=ACERO
*shellsection, elset=ASSEMBLY_VIGA-1_ALMA3, material=ACERO
*shellsection, elset=ASSEMBLY_VIGA-1_DIAGONAL, material=ACERO
*shellsection, elset=ASSEMBLY_VIGA-1_ALAINF1, material=ACERO
*shellsection, elset=ASSEMBLY_VIGA-1_ALAINF2, material=ACERO
*shellsection, elset=ASSEMBLY_VIGA-1_ALAINF3, material=ACERO
*shellsection, elset=ASSEMBLY_VIGA-1_ALASUP, material=ACERO
*shellsection, elset=ASSEMBLY_VIGA-1_ALMARIG, material=ACERO
*shellsection, elset=ASSEMBLY_VIGA-1_ALARIG, material=ACERO

***ERROR: A HOMOGENOEUS SHELL SECTION CAN ONLY HAVE ONE DATALINE TO DEFINE THE
SECTION PROPERTIES.
***NOTE: DUE TO AN INPUT ERROR THE ANALYSIS PRE-PROCESSOR HAS BEEN UNABLE TO
INTERPRET SOME DATA. SUBSEQUENT ERRORS MAY BE CAUSED BY THIS OMISSION

***ERROR: THE THICKNESS OF A SHELL LAYER MUST BE POSITIVE AND HAVE MAGNITUDE
GREATER THAN MACHINE PRECISION

If I just paste the include file (secciones.inp) instead of the Include line in the main .inp it just works.
where am I wrong?

thanks a lot!

Hi,

Try to check do you have empty lines at the end of include file.
