|---|---|---|
| ID | Each
VISCO Bulk Data card must have a unique
ID. No default (Integer > 0) |
|
| CETOL | Tolerance for viscoelastic
time integration. Ensures that the viscoelastic/creep strain
increment is controlled by the specified tolerance. If not specified or zero, fixed time integration will be used. No default (Real ≥ 0) |
Comments
- The VISCO Bulk Data entry can be referenced in the subcase section to specify if viscoelasticity/creep analysis will be activated in that subcase.
