SPCF

I am doing a linear static analysis on a complex structure. I am taking SPCF as a output file but it gives the results for all nodes but I need the summation of the reaction force at the constraint nodes. Is there a way to do so in hypermesh or do I have to do it with .csv file?

Thank you.

The Summation is written in the .out file. It shows the summ of applied loads and the reactions. Does this help you?

Otherwise, you could ask for SPCFORCE in OPTI format, which is an ASCII file, that you can perform summation later.

Hi,

I guess Mirhan has created SPC at multiple nodes.

If the nodes are constrained with same DOFs, we should bind them by RBE2 and apply SPC at the master node only, then we can get SPCF as summary reaction force.

I agree. Using a RBE2 for connecting the nodes would make things easier.
