Starter Input

This manual provides a list of all the model definition keywords and options available in Radioss.

The Radioss Block Format is executed in two steps:
  1. The Starter
  2. The Engine

The Starter reads a Runname_0000.rad file that contains the model definition. The Starter diagnosis possible errors in the models and outputs a binary restart file.

The keywords are sorted and processed in the order of the includes/submodels and their identifiers in the Radioss Starter, except for the initial velocity (/INIVEL) and the transformation (/TRANSFORM), where it is processed in the order of writing in the input deck.

The Engine executes the actual computation. It expects the binary file produced by the Starter plus a Runname_run#.rad input file in Radioss. The Engine Input describes the case control. The Engine produces output files for animation, plotting (time history), and restart.

Below is an alphabetical list of Block data entries.
