*SUBSTRUCTURE GENERATE
18.41 *SUBSTRUCTURE GENERATE: Substructuregeneration analysis.
This option is used to indicate thatthe step should be analyzed as a substructure generation step.
Product: ABAQUS/Standard
Type: History data
Level: This option is not supported in a model defined in terms of an assembly of part i nstances.
Reference:
“Defining substructures,” Section10.1.2 of the ABAQUS Analysis User’s Manual
Required parameter:
TYPE
Set this parameter equal to the identifierto be assigned to this substructure in a substructure library.
The identifier must be Zfollowed by a number that cannot exceed 9999.
Substructure identifiers must be unique within a library. If a substructure already exists in
the library with this same identifier, the analysis will terminate with a n error message unless the
OVERWRITE parameter is specified.
Optional parameters:
GRAVITYLOAD
Set GRAVITY LOAD=YES to calculate the substructure’s gravity load vectors. The default is
GRAVITYLOAD=NO.
LIBRARY
Set this parameter equal to thenam e of thesubstructure library on which the substructure data will
be written. See “Input syntax rules,” Section 1.2.1 of the ABAQUS Analysis User’s Manual, for
the syntax of such library names. The default library name is jobname.
MASS MATRIX
Set MASS MATRIX=YES to calculate the substructure’s reduced mass matrix. The default is
MASS MATRIX=NO.
OVERWRITE
Include this parameter to overwrite an existing substructure with the sam e TYPE identifier in the
library. The default is no overwrite.
