FEAP NO PARSE
« on: November 04, 2019, 05:39:38 AM »
Dear Admin Team

How can I use FEAP in NO PARSE mode.... INPUT file for no parse mode... only numerical data for nodal coordinates and element connectivity....

Can you please provide some example for the same.....

Big Thanks

Generally all this means is that you know all the numbers and do not need to use parameters, expressions, etc. in the input file.  The command is "NOPArse" after the control record.  It is just a hint and was originally there when processors were much slower.

If you further fix the global numbers, i.e. number nodes, number of elements, number of materials etc., in the header of the input file, then FEAP will read and analyse your inputfile only one times instead of two times.

the command for that is NOCOunt -- before the FEAP record.
