Only plane type of rigid wall is available for /RWALL/THERM. Coordinate of M and M1 is used to define the normal of plane.

Figure 1.
The first input format used to define the rigid wall is the coordinates of one point M or a node identifier node_ID in case of moving rigid wall.
Next input format is the coordinate of a point M1.
The secondary nodes can be defined as a list of nodes and/or as the nodes initially at a distance less than D_search from the wall.
