CREATED (2)

The string has to be left justified.

Keyword

No

1.If status is UNCREATED, it means that the spotweld modeling is not in the input deck, but HyperCrash keeps only its geometrical description in the M00 file (Nbpoint, coordinates of points, list of parts to weld).
2.If status is CREATED, the following keyword lines will be written for each spotweld connection:

Where:

 

Type

Unit

NODE
