What is Included with this Product?
The Dytran Preference product includes the following items:
1. A PCL function load_mscdytran() contained in p3patran.plb which adds Dytran specific definitions to any Patran database (not already containing such definitions) at any time.
2. A PCL library called mscdytran.plb that is included in the <installation_directory> directory. This library is used by the analysis forms to produce analysis code specific translation parameter, solution parameter, etc., forms.
3. Two executable programs called dytranp3 and p3dytran, both contained in the <installation_directory>/bin/exe directory. These programs translate information from Dytran state and time history files into a Patran database and translate information from a database into a Dytran input file. These programs can be run independent of Patran but typically run underneath, and are transparent to the user.
4. A script file called MscDytranExecute, contained in the <installation_directory>/bin/exe directory. This script can be run independently of Patran but typically run underneath Patran, transparent to the user.
5. This Analysis Preference guide is included as part of the product. An on-line version is also provided to allow the direct access to this information from within Patran.
6. ATB hybridII and hybrid III dummy files are included in the <installation_directory>/mscdytran_files directory.
