plot2bc

Generate *BOUNDARY_PRESCRIBED_MOTION cards from d3plot for a given node set.

Plot2bc reads nodal time history data from a LS-DYNA plot-file and writes it into a LS-DYNA input-format file with load curves and prescribed boundary condition cards.

usage: plot2bc [options]

options:

-i nodelist-file file with list of nodes
(default: nodelist)
format: one node per line; "*" is comment
or *NODE keyword format (incl *NODE)
-g plotfile LS-DYNA binary plot data file
(default: d3plot)
-o result-file name for resulting LS-DYNA input section
(default: load_bc)
-l offset offset value for load curve numbers
-dis |-vel |-acc read and write nodal displacement, velocity
or acceleration values
(default: displacements)
-v gives version number
-h give this help on screen
