Is there a way to edit master and slave nodes for a flexible body in ADAMS?

Hello,
 
I am currently working on a project where I would like to be able to change which node is the master node for my flexible body. Is there a way to do this in ADAMS?
 
Thanks,
Jon

  • Don't know what you have in mind, but maybe creating markers in ADAMS with the node_id = <list> and "preserve_location" option could do the job ?
     
    In a nutshell: You can create something like RBE3 elements in ADAMS by creating a marker outside the mesh and giving it a list of nodes with node_id = 1,2,3,4,..
    preserve_location = true prevents ADAMS from shifting the newly created marker to the nearest existing node.
