Definitions

Field Contents SI Unit Example
PID Property identification number of the associated PBAR or PBARL card. 1

No default (Integer > 0)

 
ISMSTR Small strain formulation flag.
1
Small strain from time =0. If the small strain option is activated (ISMSTR = 1), the strain and stress are engineering strain and stress; otherwise they are true strain and stress.
2 (Default)
Full geometric nonlinearity.

(Integer)

 
ISTRAIN Shear in beam formulation flag.
ON (Default)
OFF
 
DM Beam membrane damping.

Default = 0.0 (Real ≥ 0)

 
DB Beam bending damping.

Default = 0.01 (Real ≥ 0)

 

Comments

  1. The property identification number must be that of an existing PBAR Bulk Data Entry. Only one PBARX property extension can be associated with a particular PBAR.
  2. PBARX is only applied in geometric nonlinear analysis subcases which are defined by ANALYSIS = EXPDYN. It is ignored for all other subcases.
  3. This card is represented as an extension to a PBAR property in HyperMesh.
