vput

SpecialPurpose.vput(par='', ir='', tstrt='', kcplx='', name='', **kwargs)

Moves an array parameter vector into a variable.

Mechanical APDL Command: VPUT

Parameters:

parstr

Array parameter vector in the operation.

irstr

Arbitrary reference number assigned to this variable (1 to NV ( numvar )). Overwrites any existing results for this variable.

tstrtstr

Time (or frequency) corresponding to start of IR data. If between values, the nearer value is used.

kcplxint or str

Complex number key:

• 0 - Use the real part of the IR data.

• 1 - Use the imaginary part of the IR data.

namestr

Thirty-two character name identifying the item on printouts and displays. Defaults to the label formed by concatenating VPUT with the reference number IR.

Notes

At least one variable should be defined ( nsol, esol, rforce, etc.) before using this command. The starting array element number must be defined. For example, vput,A(1),2 moves array parameter A to variable 2 starting at time 0.0. Looping continues from array element A(1) with the index number incremented by one until the variable is filled. Unfilled variable locations are assigned a zero value. The number of loops may be controlled with the vlen command (except that loop skipping (NINC) is not allowed). For multi-dimensioned array parameters, only the first (row) subscript is incremented.
