To specify that two individual nodes are a single equivalent node.
Refer to Equivalent Nodes for further information on this feature.
One type of line repeated as often as necessary.
First Node (Number or Label), Second Node (Number or Label)
If you specify a node label rather than a node number, it must be enclosed in {} brackets.

Description |
First Node: |
The first node (number or label) of two nodes that are to be treated as a single equivalent node. If you specify a node label rather than a node number, it must be enclosed in {} brackets. |
Second Node: |
The second node (number or label) of two nodes node that are to be treated as a single equivalent node. If you specify a node label rather than a node number, it must be enclosed in {} brackets. |
(a)When two nodes are defined as equivalent, they must both have the same nodal coordinates.
(b)Internally Flexcom treats equivalent nodes as a single node. So nodal data (such as nodal motions etc.) are output by the program for the first-specified of the two nodes only.
