|
SID |
Load set identification number. (Integer > 0) |
|
G |
Grid point identification number. (Integer > 0) |
|
CID |
Coordinate system identification number. Default = 0 (Integer > 0, or blank) |
|
F |
Scale factor. (Real) |
|
N1,N2,N3 |
Components of vector measured in coordinate system defined by CID. (Real; must have at least one non-zero component) |
The static force applied to grid point G is given by

where
is the vector defined
in fields 6, 7, and 8.
A CID of zero or blank references the basic coordinate system.
