D3PLOT
User manual Version 12.0, October 2014
Only Hughes-Liu integration beams can have cross section integration with quadrature integration rules. With a ztf
file D3plot can find this information itself so the option is always greyed out. However, without a ztf file you need to
decide whether they are all Hughes-Liu beams in which case the number of integration points will be decided by the
BEAMIP for beams in the Control Card in the ptf file. If "Resultant beams present" is selected, it’ll assume there’s
only one integration point in all the beams.
There are cases where BEAMIP and MAXINT is set zero in the model which leads to no stress information for
Beams or Shells respectively, D3plot therefore will not write *INITIAL_STRESS_BEAM or
*INITIAL_STRESS_SHELL.
NODAL COORDINATES and INITIAL NODAL VELOCITY
When nodal information of elements is required, such as Nodal coordinates (*NODE) and Initial nodal velocity of
shell (*INITIAL_VELOCITY_NODE), beam and solids, for the elements selected, the nodes on such elements will
be automatically flagged for nodel information output. Please note that by selecting all Entities, it will only include
nodes on all Entities, this does not guarantee all nodes in the whole model to be included for information output.
A switch is available to select whether or not to write the nodal restraints to the *NODE card. This can be useful if
you want to merge the exported nodes back into a model without the original constraints.
