Card 9 - PSPROP3 Chocking Elements
This optional card defines chocking elements.
Parameters: KODE, N1, T1,
T2, T3, T4
KODE
KODE is the code PSPROP3 (or 111)
N1
N1 is the ID of the PSPROP3 card.
T1
T1 is a group name whose elements are specified as chocking
elements.
T2
T2 is the gap thickness. If the thickness has the form
Tn, where n is a table number (e.g. T26), then
n is a table whose dependent variable is THICKNESS and independent variable is EID,
refer to Card 9 - TABTYPE Table Variable Type Definition Card - Optional for
details.
T3
T3 is the number of gaps.
T4
T4 is a code that defines the axis of revolution and the plane in
which the chocking elements lie.
T4 = XZ, the elements lie on the ZX plane and the axis of rotation is the Z-axis.T4 = YX, the elements lie on the XY plane and the axis of rotation is the X-axis.
