Hello everybody!

I have the following question on LS-DYNA. I have a text file with two columns: 1 - node number, 2 - nodal force. I need to apply nodal forces according to the file. How can I do it without multiplying cards for each node?

 

Thank you in advance.

You would need to write some kind of script to take the data from your text files and convert them into an input for *Load_node_point. However, load input in LS-Dyna requires a time history load curve (LCID) so you will also need a script to write out your nodal force into a *Define_curve that you can reference.
