7.2.2.3. Unmatched Nodes on Edge-Component Pairs

Unmatched nodes on the lowand high-edge components produce approximate cyclic symmetry solutions (as compared to matched-node cases). The program uses an unmatched-node algorithm (similar to that of the CEINTF command) to connect dissimilar meshes.

In unmatched cases, the eigenvector shapes exhibit discontinuity across segment boundaries when expanded (via the /CYCEXPAND command). The discontinuity is an expected behavior; in the expansion process, the low edge of sector 2 lies adjacent to the high edge of sector 1, and so on throughout the full 360°.

For information about expanding the solution results of a cyclic symmetry analysis, see Expanding the Cyclic Symmetry Solution (p. 196).

7.2.2.4. Identifying Matching Node Pairs

To identify matching node pairs, you can issue a *STATUS command to list the cyclic parameter array Name_xref_n (where Name is the root name of the lowand high-edge components specified via the CYCLIC command).

The cyclic parameter array is generated internally during element plotting with cyclic expansion activated (/CYCEXPAND,,ON).

In the cyclic parameter array listing, the matching node pairs appear as a pair of node numbers with the low-edge node number having a negative value.

7.2.3. Modeling Limitations

The following limitations exist when defining a cyclic symmetry model:

Cyclic symmetry solution does not work for elements that have thermal and hydrostatic pressure degrees of freedom.

The following structural element types are not supported:

Axisymmetric elements (such as PLANE83)

Generalized axisymmetric elements (such as SOLID272)

Multipoint constraint elements (MPC184)

Layered composite elements (such as SOLID185 with KEYOPT(3) = 1)

Thermal surface effect elements (such as SURF151)

Reinforced elements (such as REINF263)

User-defined element (USER300)

Shear/Twist panel elements (SHELL28)

Reinforced concrete solid elements (SOLID65)

Gasket elements (INTER192, INTER193, INTER194, INTER195)
