Comments
- When the CMDE command is not present, component modal synthesis damping energy is not output.
- Component modal synthesis damping energy output is only available for Frequency Response Analysis (both direct and modal methods). It is intended for use when external CMS superelementss are used.
- Multiple formats are allowed on the same entry; these should be comma separated. If a format is not specified, this output control applies to all formats defined by the OUTPUT command, for which the result is available.
- Multiple instances of this card are allowed. If instances are conflicting, the last instance dominates.
- For optimization, the frequency of output to a given format is controlled by the I/O option OUTPUT.
