Comments
- This option is useful when using /SPH/INOUT. It automatically defines inactive particles related to the part given by its identifier "part_ID".
- The Np particles and supporting nodes are created.
- In SPMD parallel version, Np particles and supporting nodes are created for each SPMD domain.
- These particles are deactivated at time =0. A deactivated particle does not interact with the other particles (stresses and internal energy of the particle are set to 0).
- These particles are provided in order to be activated by the inlet conditions, if necessary.
- The particles automatically created through the options /SPH/RESERVE get identifiers going from the maximum identifier of the particles defined through the options /SPHCEL, plus 1.
- The supporting nodes automatically created through the options /SPH/RESERVE get identifiers going from the maximum identifier of the nodes defined through the options /NODE, plus 1.
