HyperMesh Nodes are used to represent OptiStruct GRID and SPOINT bulk data entries.

OptiStruct Keyword

Notes

GRID

Defines the location of a geometric grid point of the structural model, the directions of its displacement, and its permanent single-point constraints.

Exported in large field format by optistructlf template.

SPOINT

Defines a scalar point. Ideally a scalar point has no location, but in HyperMesh it is represented as a node.
