Refer to "Point Spring Supports") Refer to Usage of Table Tool and enter or modify the following data:
Node: Node number Type: Type of springs (Linear / Compression-only / Tension-only / Multi-Linear) SDx: Spring stiffness in GCS X-direction (Node's local x-axis direction) SDy Spring stiffness in GCS Y-direction (Node's local y-axis direction) SDz: Spring stiffness in GCS Z-direction (Node's local z-axis direction) SRx: Rotational spring stiffness about GCS X-axis (Node's local x-axis) SRy: Rotational spring stiffness about GCS Y-axis (Node's local y-axis) SRz: Rotational spring stiffness about GCS Z-axis (Node's local z-axis) Damping: Damping constant Cx: Damping constant in GCS X-direction (Node's local x-axis direction) Cy: Damping constant in GCS Y-direction (Node's local y-axis direction) Cz: Damping constant in GCS Z-direction (Node's local z-axis direction) CRx: Rotational damping constant about GCS X-axis (Node's local x-axis) CRy: Rotational damping constant about GCS Y-axis (Node's local y-axis) CRz: Rotational damping constant about GCS Z-axis (Node's local z-axis) Stiffness: The stiffness of tension-only/compression-only spring Direction: Node local axis direction in which a spring is assigned X: X direction component of a vector which accounts for the direction of a spring Y: Y direction component of a vector which accounts for the direction of a spring Z: Z direction component of a vector which accounts for the direction of a spring Force-Deformation Function: Function name in which the hysteresis characteristics of multi-linear hysteresis stiffness are defined. Group: Boundary Group in which the entered boundary conditions are included |
