*SUBSTRUCTURE LOAD CASE

18.42 *SUBSTRUCTURE LOAD CASE: Begin the deﬁnition of a substructure loadcase .

This option is used to begin the deﬁnition of a substructure load case for the substructure curre ntly being

generated. It can be used only in a *SUBSTRUCTURE GENERATE analysis.

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.

•“Deﬁning substructures,” Section10.1.2 of the ABAQUS Analysis User’s Manual

•*SLOAD

Required parameter:

NAME

Set this parameter equal to a label that will be used to refer to the load case in *SLOAD option

speciﬁcations when applying loads tothe substructure during an analysis.

To deﬁne the loads or boundary conditions:

Enter any mechanical loading options (“Concentrated loads,” Section 27.4.2 of the

ABAQUS Analysis User’s Manual, and “Distributed loads,” Section 27.4.3 of the

ABAQUS Analysis User’s Manual), thermal loading options (“Thermal loads,” Section 27.4.4

of the ABAQUS Analysis User’s Manual), or *BOUNDARY options (“Boundary conditions,”

Section 27.3.1of the ABAQUS Analysis User ’sManual) to deﬁne the loads forming the load case.

Specify a magnitude for each load. This magnitude will be scaled by a magnitude and amplitude

reference speciﬁed in the *SLOAD option. The load case deﬁnition continues until an option

is encountered that is not one of the loading options. If boundary conditions are included in a

*SUBSTRUCTURE LOAD CASE, they are alwaysactive, even if the *SLOAD opti on is not used.
