DM.plotintrusion

Calculate maximal intrusion of a subset of nodes.

Plotintrusion calculates the maximal intrusion of a subset of nodes from a LS-DYNA plot file relative to a moving local system (defined by three nodes).


usage: plotintrusion [options]

options:

-x|y|z direction for intrusion to check (default: x )
-dir dir-file file with x-y-z values for intrusion vector
(default: 1 0 0 )
-ndir 2n-file file with 2 nodes defining intrusion vector
(direction is from n1 to n2)
-rev reverse direction defined above
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-rel ref-file file with three nodes that define fixed system
(default: global system)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-g plot-file LS-DYNA binary plot geometry data file
(default: d3plot)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-m part-file file name for list of parts to be in/excluded
(default: all parts are included)
syntax of part-file:
-id excludes part with id
id includes part with id
id1-id2 includes parts from id1-id2
-excl parts in part-file are excluded (option -m)
(default: parts are included)
-box boxfile file name for min/max coordinate range (box)
(default: all elements are included)
syntax of box-file:
xmin=value, ... , zmax=value
(format and order are arbitrary)
-nofail consider only nodes of active elements (check failed element info on last state)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-opt opt-file give options & values above in one file
syntax of opt-file: eg
-dir x y z (direction)
-ndir n1 n2 (nodal direction)
-rel n1 n2 n3 (nodal fixed system)
-g plotfile (binary d3plotfile)
-m mat-range (part definition)
-box box-range (min/max definition)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-list list content of plotfile
-v gives version number and author
-h give this help on screen
