 MSC.Fatigue 8.0 Translator - PAT3FAT Update 

Description
This PAT3FAT executable fixes the following problem(s):

1.  Incorrect averaging of stress results.  This manifests itself when results only exist on a portion of the model or the model consists of a variety of element types yet the group chosen is for only a certain type of element.  In some cases the work around was to set the averaging method to Group instead of Global in the General Setup Parameters.  For other circumstances, there was no workaround. (CSR 33919)

Installation
1. Copy the correct compressed tar or zip file to your  "<P3_HOME>" directory depending on the platform of interest.
       (i.e. -->  c:\msc\patran80)

2. For UNIX, gunzip the file and untar it.  For example:

    gunzip pat3fat_sgi.tar.gz
    tar xvf pat3fat_sgi.tar

3. For NT, unzip the file into the installation directory.
