HC cylinder rigid bolt

Restriction: Available in LS-DYNA and Radioss.

This realization creates a single ConNode rigidlink element (LS-DYNA) or RBE2 (Radioss) for the body, and projects and connects to nodes of the adjoining shell/solid within the prescribed cylinder diameter, L1 (cylinder height along the vector from the connector location) and L2 (cylinder height in the opposite direction of the vector from the connector location).

The realization uses the prop_dyna_rigidbolts.tcl or prop_radioss_rigidbolts.tcl property script.
