I recently started using Patran/Nastran 2018. I just noticed that my nastran input files now have the following command at the top: NASTRAN SYSTEM(216)=YES. I do not recall seeing that with previous patran/nastran versions. Unfortunately, I cannot find this particular system cell documented in the QRG or any other manual.
Please tell me why there is no mention of system cell 216 in the QRG or any other version 2018 manual. I would like to know what this command is doing and if it is necessary. I expect all commands to be documented in your manual. Am I expecting too much?
Note that System Cell ITER (216) was listed in 2005R2 QRG, but not in 2007R1 QRG. I don't see anything about it in the 2007R1 release notes, but apparently that was the time frame where it was removed from the QRG.
