INCLUDE NASTRAN FILES
INCLUDE NASTRAN FILES
(OP)
Hi,
if you have a Nastran .bdf file with include files in it, sometimes it is very helpful to have all these include files displayed ("exploted") in the .bdf. Do you know if there is a tool to include these "Include" files in the .bdf?
thanks

"Open all the included files with a text editor and substitute in place of the 'Include' in the main file the file called.
Onda"
Ok, that is what I want but in an automatic way, not copying/pasting by hand.
thanks
RE: INCLUDE NASTRAN FILES
if you have access to NASTRAN (MSC or NX) solver just run sol 101 (linear static), or whatever solution, asking in the case control section ECHO=UNSORT. You could even send the bdf to another file ECHO=FILE, or have the bdf "sorted" ECHO=SORT. Furthermore you can have just portion of the bdf inserting any number of ECHOON followed by ECHOOFF. Consult the QRG in the Case Controls Commands section for a complete description.
Hope this helps
regards
Francesco
