Notes
The EMATWRITE command forces ANSYS to write the File.EMAT file. The file is necessary if you intend to follow the initial load step with a subsequent inertia relief calculation (IRLF). If used in the solution processor (/SOLU), this command is only valid within the first load step.
This command is also valid in PREP7.
