MESHING RENUMBER Control

                  

This command is used to re-number node numbers in order to improve solution time during the analysis of the model.


Control Comments
GLOBAL [XYZ] The node numbers are re-numbered according
[YXZ] to the global coordinate system in increasing
[ZXY] `xyz' order as specified. The default is `XYZ'.
[XZY]
[YZX]
[ZYX]
DIAGONAL The direction of the maximum distance between points
is calculated and used to define the direction of the
z-axis to be used for re-numbering. The nodes will be
re-numbered in the plane normal to the z-axis.
Cord_sys The node numbers are re-numbered according to the
specified rectangular coordinate system. The
nodes will be numbered in increasing x direction,
then y direction and then z direction.

Examples:

1.
MESHING RENUMBER CYS7

Re-numbers the nodes with reference to the rectangular coordinate system CYS7.
