Check NASTRAN: Check assignments for NASTRAN
interface
Selecting this command causes the following
checks to be performed:
Mechanical
type ID
For the
NASTRAN-interface the association of MAKROS elements to NASTRAN elements is
done on the basis of mechanical type IDs assigned to the elements (for example
mechanical type ID = 22 results in CQUADR records with property record PSHELL).
It is checked whether all elements are assigned a mechanical type ID that is
compatible with the geometrical type of the element. Elements that have no or a
wrong mechanical type ID are stored as element selection Set 1, so these
elements can easily be found graphically.
Property
record
It is
checked whether all elements is assigned a cross-section with property data
that is compatible with the NASTRAN element type (cross section type ID =
mechanical type ID +1000). Elements that have no or a wrong cross section
assigned to are stored as element selection Set 2 and can easily be found
graphically.
Cross-section
record
It is
checked whether all elements is assigned a cross-section with additional
element data that is compatible with the NASTRAN element type (cross section
type ID = mechanical type ID). Elements that have no or a wrong cross- section
assigned to are stored as element selection Set 3 and can easily be found
graphically.
Material
It is
checked whether all in the cross-section definitions used material IDs are
defined.
