Mapdl.lsdele(lsmin='', lsmax='', lsinc='', **kwargs)

Deletes load step files.

Mechanical APDL Command: LSDELE

Parameters:

lsminstr

Range of load step files to be deleted, from LSMIN to LSMAX in steps of LSINC. LSMAX defaults to LSMIN, and LSINC defaults to 1. If LSMIN = ALL, all load step files are deleted (and LSMAX and LSINC are ignored). The load step files are assumed to be named Jobname.Sn, where n is a number assigned by the lswrite command (01 –09,10,11, etc.). On systems with a 3-character limit on the extension, the S is dropped for numbers > 99.

lsmaxstr

Range of load step files to be deleted, from LSMIN to LSMAX in steps of LSINC. LSMAX defaults to LSMIN, and LSINC defaults to 1. If LSMIN = ALL, all load step files are deleted (and LSMAX and LSINC are ignored). The load step files are assumed to be named Jobname.Sn, where n is a number assigned by the lswrite command (01 –09,10,11, etc.). On systems with a 3-character limit on the extension, the S is dropped for numbers > 99.

lsincstr

Range of load step files to be deleted, from LSMIN to LSMAX in steps of LSINC. LSMAX defaults to LSMIN, and LSINC defaults to 1. If LSMIN = ALL, all load step files are deleted (and LSMAX and LSINC are ignored). The load step files are assumed to be named Jobname.Sn, where n is a number assigned by the lswrite command (01 –09,10,11, etc.). On systems with a 3-character limit on the extension, the S is dropped for numbers > 99.
