IntroductionThis manual provides examples of use of many of the PCL functions built-in to Patran that are available to the user. This manual is broken up into seven chapters that describe:Basic Functions

This chapter provides examples for the functions that are used in the implementation of the File, Group, Viewport, Viewing, Display and Tools items on the menu bar. This chapter provides examples for the functions that are used to implement the Geometry form accessed through the switch bar. The switch bar is located between the menu bar and the tool bar near the top of the user interface. This chapter provides examples for the functions that are used in the implementation of the Finite Elements switch bar form. This chapter provides examples for the functions that are used in the implementation of the Loads/BC, Material, Properties, Load Cases, and Fields switch bar forms. This chapter provides examples for the functions that are used by the Results switch bar form. This chapter provides examples for the functions that are used in the implementation of the XY Plot switch bar form. This chapter provides examples for the functions that are used to control some of the settings or preferences used by many of the other forms used in Patran. Many of these functions are used in the implementation of the Preferences menu bar item.

Chapter 1: Introduction 3Supporting Files

Supporting FilesThe spool.ses file is a session file that is used by many of the examples in this book. To use this file, hold down the control key and the right mouse button, highlight the text and paste it into a text file named spool.ses. Start Patran and go to File/Session/Play to run the session file. spool.ses()

# # Purpose : This file will generate a PATRAN database # "spool.db" which consists of a free standing # aluminum spool, wound with a wire which results # in a compressive pressure on the spool's core # and flanges. # # This file can be run by starting a session of # Patran, and running this session file # through the "File","Session","Play" pulldown # menus on the menu bar. # # Model : The spool is 8 units tall with a core diameter of # 2 units, a flange diameter of 8 units. Fillet # radius is 1 unit. The spool is made of aluminum, # 0.075 units thick. # # The model consists of # * +400 psi compressive pressure on spool core # * +20 psi compressive pressure on the top and # bottom flanges # * +400 to +20 psi compressive pressure varying # over the top and bottom flanges # # Analysis & After running this session file, analysis can be # Results: done by following these steps. # 1. Choose "MSC.Nastran" from "Preferences", # "Analysis..." pulldown menus on the menu bar. # 2. Select "Analysis" switch and from the form # displayed, select the "Subcase Select" menu # button from the "The Subcases For Solution Sequence: 101" # select both default and spool_loads from the List box # and it will be added the selected subcases list box. # Enter OK. This will generate Subcase 1 (Default subcase) # 3. Select the "Translation Parameters..." # button. From the "OUTPUT2 Fomat" Option Menu # select option "Text". Press "OK". # 4. Press "Apply" on "Analysis" window. # If MSC.Nastran is available this will create # a file "spool.op2" # 5. From the "Analysis" window, from "Action" # Option Menu, select "Read Output2" option. # 6. Click on the "Select Results File.." Button # and select "spool.op2". Press "Apply". # 7. The results will be read, and a file # "spool.jbr" is created. #--------------------------------------------------------------------# # Create a new database and set the preferences uil_file_new.go("", "./spool.db") $?
