Identify Nodal CSYS dialog box
| Type | |
|---|---|
| Specifies the type of nodal coordinate system:Displacement provides the node's frame of reference for the structural degrees of freedom.Reference determines the coordinate system used to write node coordinates to your solver input deck. | |
| Object to Identify | |
| Select Object | Lets you select the nodes or geometry to identify assigned coordinate systems. |
| Coordinate System | |
| Displacement CS****Reference CS | Displays GLOBAL or LOCAL depending on the identified coordinate system. |
