Alter to Perform Maximum Normalization on Eigenvectors


Alter Name     norma.v2001


Purpose

To normalize the output eigenvectors to a maximum of 1.0.

If a reduction method is used, the eigenvectors are scaled based on
the reduced solution set.  This DMAP Alter scales the eigenvectors
based on the largest value in the g-set (excluding the q-set) being set
to 1.0.


Solution Sequence

SOL 103.


Input
 
Executive Control

Include 'norma.v2001'.


Output

Eigenvectors normalized to a maximum of 1.0.

The DMAP Alter removes the q-set displacements and scales the
eigenvectors to a maximum displacement of 1.0.


Limitations

        1.  
This DMAP Alter is not set up for superelements.

        2.  
The output displacement for any q-set DOF is set to 0.0.
