Geometric Properties in Mooring Line Format

Overview

When using the Mooring Line format you specify geometric property data under three headings:

•Axial Stiffness

•Mass per Unit Length

•Various Diameter Inputs

Relevant Keywords

•*GEOMETRIC SETS is used to assign geometric properties to element sets (see OPTION=MOORING).

•*FORCE-STRAIN is used to define force-strain curves for non-linear materials.
