CPROp Problems
« on: July 18, 2014, 06:35:50 AM »
Hi all.

I'm trying to do a dynamic analysis on a model i have, so before i did that i have a simple model to work with to understand the commands of feappv.
I have a surface distributed loading with CSURf and nodal boundaries with CBOUn, but the problem comes in whenever i try to apply a proportional loading number to the CSURf with CPROp. I have attached the file i am working with. As it is right now, whenver i try to run the program the results file seems to indicate that it did not even try to apply CPROp. In a different, even simpler model i have it seemed as though applying CPROp before CSURf worked, and when i tried that then in the results file said Missing corner coordinate in PROJ3d. Which, ive seen before when i neglected to to number the surf command properly, but as you can see this is not the case. Also at this point i have tried to re orientate the CPROp surface command points, which did not work as well.

So in conclusion, i feel as though theres either a massive misunderstanding on my part, a limitation on FEAPpv I'm unaware of, or a bug. Any help is greatly appreciated.

PS, Im in a windows 64 bit environment and using the latest 3.1 version of FEAPpv.
