Two-Way Radio User Manual

INTEGRATED OUTPUT SECTION

Set POSITION=CENTER if the reference node is to be relocated from the user-deﬁned location

to the center of the surface in the initial conﬁguration.

PROJECT ORIENTATION

Set PROJECT ORIENTATION=NO (default) if the initial coordinate system of the section should

not be projected onto the section surface. If the ORIENTATION parameter is included, this choice

results in an initial coordinate system that m atches the deﬁned orientation. If an orientation is not

speciﬁed, the initial coordinate system m atches the global coordinate system.

Set PROJECT ORIENTATION=YES if the initial coordinate system of the section should

be modiﬁed by projecting onto the section surface using the average normal to the surface. If an

orientation is not speciﬁed, the global coordinate system is projected onto the section surface.

REF NODE

Set this parameter equal to either the node number of the integrated output section reference node

or to the name of a node set containing the reference node. If the name of a node set is chosen, the

node set must contain exactly one node.

REF NODE MOTION

This parameter is relevant only if the REF NODE parameter is included.

Set REF NODE MOTION=INDEPENDENT (default) if the motion of the reference node is

not based on the average m otion of the surface.

Set REF NODE MOTION=AVERAGE TRANSLATION if the reference node must translate

with the average translation of the surface. This choice is relevant only if the reference node is not

connected to the rest of the m odel.

Set REF NODE MOTION=AVERAGE if the reference node must both translate and rotate

with the average m otion of the surface. This choice is relevant only if the reference node is not

connected to the rest of the m odel.

There are no data lines associated with this option.
