*SUBSTRUCTURE LOAD CASE

Begin the definition of a substructure load case.

This option is used to begin the definition of a substructure load case for the substructure currently being generated. It can be used only in a SUBSTRUCTURE GENERATE analysis.

Required parameters

NAME

Set this parameter equal to a label that will be used to refer to the load case in SLOAD option specifications when applying loads to the substructure during an analysis.

To define the loads

Enter any mechanical loading options (Concentrated loads and Distributed loads) or thermal loading options (Thermal loads) to define the loads forming the load case. Specify a magnitude for each load. This magnitude will be scaled by a magnitude and amplitude reference specified in the SLOAD option. The load case definition continues until an option is encountered that is not one of the loading options. If boundary conditions are included in a SUBSTRUCTURE LOAD CASE, they are always active, even if the SLOAD option is not used.
