Execution Controls
The Execution Controls form provides access to subordinate forms upon which are defined the parameters controlling execution of an Dytran analysis
Execution Control Parameters
The Execution Controls subordinate form defines data to be written to the Executive Control and Case Control sections of the input file.
Element/Entity Activation
This form defines the parameters that control activation of elements for only part of an analysis. The data is all entered via the ACTIVE entry in the Bulk Data section of the input file. This means they cannot be reset on RESTART. The defaults for all these entries are on at all times.
Dynamic Relaxation Parameters
This form allows the user to define the data for the VISCDMP Bulk Data entry or the parameter VDAMP.
Sub-Cycling Parameters
This form is used to define the subcycling parameters for Euler-Lagrange coupling.
Eulerian Parameters
This form is used to define the coefficients for eulerian elements.
ALE Parameters
This form allows the user to define the data for the ALE Parameter Options on the PARAM entry of the input file.
General Parameters
This form defines failure limits and shell options. All are PARAM entries in the Bulk Data Section of the input file.
Application Sensitive Defaults
This form causes the defaults to be customized for a particular application of Dytran.
Coupling Parameters
This form allows you to define the data for the FASTCOUP Parameter Options on the PARAM entry of the input file.
Contact Parameters
This form is used to define the contact control parameters.
Variable Activation
This form is used to define the data for the VARACTIV parameter.
Bulk Viscosity Parameters
This form is used to define the data for the bulk viscosity control parameters.
Hourglass Parameters
This form is used to define the data for the hourglass control parameters.
User Subroutine Parameters
This form is used to define the data for the EXTRAS parameter.
Rigid Body Merging
This form is used to define the data for the MATRMRG1 parameter.
Add CID to MATRIG
This form is used to define local coordinate system (CID) of centre of gravity in the MATRIG entry.
