Analysis Control

  LR.STRAND performs only static analysis of a selected loadcase group (via the CASE card) defined on a LOAD card at the end of the input file. One load card is produced for each FEMGEN loadcase (LCID).

Where users wish to analyse a number of loadcases or combinations thereof it may be necessary to edit the LR.STRAND input file to suit. The user is refered to the LR.STRAND user manual for further information on case control.

The following cards illustrate the analysis control cards produced by the interface program.

$ CASE        ID     LID   SPCID   MPCID
CASE           1    1001       1       1
