Dear all,
I am trying to understand an example model with a bearing.
The two nodes which are used to constrain the bearing give for the Node Location Information:
Reference CID = Global Rectangular
Analysis CID = 4 Rectangular
All other nodes are referring also to Global Rectangular CID for the Analysis CID.
I would like to know what this means 4 Rectangular?
The RBE2s which are connected to these points have no reference to other CID so I assume they take the global CID.
In the BDF-file there are some CORD2R defined:
CORD2R* 4 0. 0.
* 0. 1. 0. 0.
* 0. 0. -1.
*
CORD2R* 5 0. 0.
* 0. -1. 0. 0.
* 0. 0. 1.
*
CORD2R* 6 0. 0.
* 0. 1. 0. 0.
* 0. 0. -1.
*
CORD2R* 7 0. 0.
* 0. -1. 0. 0.
* 0. 0. 1.
*
CORD2R* 12 -160.81759643554368.5
* -226.72961425781-160.81759643554691.1295443819 -556.83722631104
* -168.57967172422698.56095064975695.8543142001753
I don`t see a special CID.
Can you explain the 4 Rectangular?
Thanks
