grp#

Mapdl.grp(signif='', label='', forcetype='', **kwargs)#

Specifies the grouping mode combination method.

APDL Command: GRP

Parameters:
signif

Combine only those modes whose significance level exceeds the SIGNIF threshold. For single point, multipoint, or DDAM response (SPOPT,SPRS, MPRS or DDAM), the significance level of a mode is defined as the mode coefficient of the mode, divided by the maximum mode coefficient of all modes. Any mode whose significance level is less than SIGNIF is considered insignificant and is not contributed to the mode combinations. The higher the SIGNIF threshold, the fewer the number of modes combined. SIGNIF defaults to 0.001. If SIGNIF is specified as 0.0, it is taken as 0.0. (This mode combination method is not valid for SPOPT,PSD.)

label

Label identifying the combined mode solution output.

DISP - Displacement solution (default). Displacements, stresses, forces, etc., are

available.

VELO - Velocity solution. Velocities, “stress velocities,” “force velocities,” etc.,

are available.

ACEL - Acceleration solution. Accelerations, “stress accelerations,” “force

accelerations,” etc., are available.

forcetype

Label identifying the forces to be combined:

STATIC - Combine the modal static forces (default).

TOTAL - Combine the modal static plus inertial forces.

Notes

The SIGNIF value set with this command (including the default value of 0.001) overrides the SIGNIF value set with the MXPAND command.

This command is also valid for PREP7.
