Generalised Constraint Data Records

  A Generalised Constraint Data Set is denoted by a `KEY' of 104 in the data set header record.

KEY, ANAME, LPNR, NANT1, IDOF1, NANT2, IDOF2

To be read with the format:

FORMAT(1X, I2, 1X, 8A1, 2(I5,4X,6I1))

Where:

KEY = -1 for a data header record

= -3 for the data set delimiter record which is an otherwise blank record inserted at the end of the data set.

ANAME = Name of point, line, surface or body

LPNR = Sequence Number

NANT1 = Number of nodes to follow for part1

IDOF1(6) = 6 degrees of freedom 0 not affected 1 constrained

NANT2 = Number of nodes to follow for part2

IDOF2(6) = 6 degrees of freedom 0 not affected 1 constrained

And then the nodes data:

KEY, NODE1,...NODE15

To be read with the format:

FORMAT(1X, I2, 15I5)

or: FORMAT (1X, I2, 15I10) for 10 digit node number format

Where:

KEY = -2 for a data continuation record

NODE1 - NODE15 = node numbers

Notes:

1.

Nodes for part1 are output first.

2.

The data continuation record (KEY = -2) will be repeated until all the nodes have been defined.
