Syntax
TPOINT arg1 arg2 .... arg14
Description
The tendon point is created or properties are assigned to the point.
Arguments to create a point
Minimum quantity: 7
arg1
Value |
Dimension |
Meaning |
itp |
INT |
Name of the tendon point |
arg2
Value |
Dimension |
Meaning |
CGREF |
KEYWORD |
The following are the inputs to the reference point as the next arguments |
CGRID |
KEYWORD |
The following are the inputs to the grid point as the next arguments |
CALC |
KEYWORD |
The point is calculated, a reference point is not to be specified. The corresponding inputs remain empty. |
arg3
Value |
Dimension |
Meaning |
rname |
TEXT |
Station-defined reference member |
arg4
Value |
Dimension |
Meaning |
sname |
TEXT |
Station name at reference member |
arg5
Value |
Dimension |
Meaning |
BACK |
KEYWORD |
Backside of the station |
FRONT |
KEYWORD |
Front side of station |
arg6
Value |
Dimension |
Meaning |
pname |
TEXT |
Name of the cross section point (arg2 = CGREF) or name of the grid point (arg2 = CGRID). A grid point is formed from the grid name and the grid positions in 2 directions, so the point "G1(4:6)" is the matrix position (4:6) in grid "G1". |
arg7
Value |
Dimension |
Meaning |
INT |
KEYWORD |
Internal piece of the tendon starts in the point and ends in the next point. |
INTU |
KEYWORD |
Internal piece of the tendon starts in the point and ends in the next point. The structural unit follows as the next argument. The specification of the structural unit in which the tendon piece is located makes the assignment unambiguous. |
EXT |
KEYWORD |
External piece of the tendon starts in the point and ends in the next point. This is followed by the number assigned to the external tendon element in the analysis model. |
arg8 (arg7 = INTU)
Value |
Dimension |
Meaning |
unit |
INT |
Number of structural unit |
arg8 (arg7 = EXT)
Value |
Dimension |
Meaning |
elem |
INT |
Element number int the analysis model |
Arguments for curve definition of a point
Minimum quantity: 2
arg1
Value |
Dimension |
Meaning |
itp |
INT |
Name of the existing tendon point |
arg2
Value |
Dimension |
Meaning |
SPLINE |
KEYWORD |
Cubic spline |
STRAIGHT |
KEYWORD |
Straight |
ARCUB |
KEYWORD |
Arc, plane through vector from point to following point and 1st vector at grid/cross-section at current point |
ARCVB |
KEYWORD |
Arc, plane through vector from point to following point and 2nd vector at grid/cross-section at current point |
ARCUE |
KEYWORD |
Arc, plane through vector from point to following point and 1st vector at grid/cross-section at following point |
ARCVE |
KEYWORD |
Arc, plane through vector from point to following point and 2nd vector at grid/cross-section at following point |
TANGENTS |
KEYWORD |
Tangent intersection; predecessor and successor are of type STRAIGHT or TANGENTS |
arg3, arg4, … The following are arguments to the constraints, always alternating keyword and value

TENDON/POINTS
Examples
TPOINT 1 CGRID "MG-Box" s001 FRONT "Grid2(1:2)" INT
Tendon point 1 is created at grid point "Grid2(1:2)" at front side of station s001 . The piece of tendon that starts at this point is internal.
#TPOINT 2 CALC "" "" FRONT "" INT
Tendon point 2 is automatically calculated, because the tendon is defined to be straight at its beginning. The piece of tendon that starts at this point is internal.
TPOINT 1 SPLINE POS1 0.000 POS2 0.000
A SPLINE type curve starts at tendon point 1, with constraints in Y and Z at the point.
