Dataformat MODEL

The MODEL file contains double float numbers (8 bytes per number) in binary form. Their count and meaning is depending on counts of objects specified in the CONFIG file. Size of MODEL file is exactly given by relationship:

size = 8(11nn + 11nb + 8nbcl + 6nbsfl + 4nbsml + 4nbtl);

for explanation of the used symbols see dataformat_config. Data are saved in the file in the same order and count like in the relationship. Following tables define the data order and their meaning.

 

Every NODE has 11 parameters with the following order and meaning:

 parameter   coord X   coord Z   support X   support Z   support Y   force FX   force FZ   moment MY   displ u   displ w   displ fi 
 domain  R R 0/1 0/1 0/1 R R R R R R
 dimension  m m - - - N N Nm m m rad

 

Every BAR has 11 parameters with the following order and meaning (see bar_attributes):

 parameter   node1   node2   hinge1   hinge2   height h   area A   area Akapa   moment I   modulus E   ratio mi   thermal coef cT 
 domain  N+ N+ 0/1 0/1 R+ R+ R+ R+ R+ R+ R+
 dimension  index index - - m m2 m2 m4 Pa - K-1

 

Explanations of the bar loads data are not yet available.
