*SELECT CYCLIC SYMMETRY MODES
18.6 *SELECT CYCLIC SYMMETRY MODES: Specify the cyclic symmetry modes in an
eigenvalue analysis of a cyclicsymmetric structure.
This option is used to specify which cyclic symmetry modes s hould be used in an eigenvalue analysis.
Product: ABAQUS/Standard
Type: History data
Level: Step

Optional parameters:
EVEN
Includethis parameter to request the even cyclic symmetry modes only. If this parameter is omitted,
all cyclic symmetry modes will be use d within the NMIN, NMAX range.
NMIN
Set this parameter equal to the lowest cyclic symmetry mode number. The default value is 0.
NMAX
Set this parameter equal to the highest cyclic symmetry mode number. The default value is the
highest number that is feasible for the number of sectors given in the *CYCLIC SYMM ETRY
MODEL option.
There are no data lines associated with this option.
