NGEN: Generate incremental nodes.
This option is used to generate nodes incrementally.
Products: ABAQUS/Standard ABAQUS/Explicit
Type: Model data
Level: Part, Part instance
Reference:

“Node definition,” Section 2.1.1 of the ABAQUS Analysis User’s Manual
Optional parameters:
LINE
Set LINE=P to generate the nodes along a parabola. In this case the user must define an extra point,
the m idpoint between the two end points.
Set LINE=C to generate the nodes along a circular arc. In this case the user must define an
extra point, the center of the circle.
If this parameter is om itted, the nodes will be gene rated along a straight line.
NSET
Set this parameter equal to the name of a node set to which the nodes will be assigned. The two
end nodes will also be included in the node set. Node sets created or modified with this option will
always be sorted.
SYSTEM
Set SYSTEM=RC (default) to define the extra node in a Cartesian coordinate system. Set
SYSTEM=C to define the extra node in a cy lindrical coordinate system. Set SYSTEM=S to define
the extra node in a spherical coordinate sys tem. See Figure 14.3–1.
Data lines to g enerate nodes incrementally:
First line:
1. Number of the first end node (it must have been previously defined).
2. Number of the second end node (it must have been previously defined).
3. Increm ent in the num bers between each node along the line. The default is 1.
4. Number of the third node giving the extra point (if required; it must have been previously
defined).
5. First coordinate of the extra point (if required).
