Creating session file for pressure load mapping using PCL.

Hi,
 
I have a query regarding load and boundary conditions syntax using PCL.
 
Problem definition: I am creating a session file for GFEM to DFEM pressure mapping using PCL commands. My query is, how patran is writing PLOAD cards for a particular subcase as highlighted in below example.
 
Example : How these highlighted load ids are considered in Patran PCL. Kindly explain the load case id pattern being considered as this is required to loop for many load cases.
 
INTEGER loadsbcs_plot_scalar_table_id
lbc_create_scalar_table( "Pressure", 8, 0., "Top Surf Pressure", "Resultant", @
11, [4,5, 6, 7, 13, 19, 25, 31, 37, 43, 49], 1, [3], @
loadsbcs_plot_scalar_table_id )
 
PS: An example file would be great if you can share the loads case selection pattern using pcl.
 
Many Thanks in advance.

  • Hi Arthur,
     
    Thanks for guidance. Some queries regarding the same are listed below.
     
    1. In ajh_dump_loadcase.pcl should I have to change the loadcase name and input in Patran? I changed it to my XXXXXXX load case but I got some errors in string length. Please correct me if I am wrong.
    2. is it possible to dump the data into a report file or text file instead of "set1" in ajh_dump_loadcase.pcl .
     
    I really appreciate your effort.
     
    Thanks,
    Vishal
