Reduced superelement database (Simcenter Samcef)

You can create reduced Samcef database (*_reduced.sdb) that contains only the basic information of the superelement creation model—the nodes (retained nodes and boundary nodes) and the superelement definition.

This database does not expose the entire original model. You can share it with other people that want to use your superelement in their model.

This reduced database cannot be used for recovery purposes.
