Domain record(s)

This set of records describes the whole domain and its type. Depending on the type of problem, there may be one or several domain records. If not indicated, one domain record is default for all problem types.

The domain type is used to resolve the default number of DOFs in node and their physical meaning. Format is following

domain

*domainType

The *domainType can be one from the following

• The 2dPlaneStress and 2d-Truss modes declare two default dofs per node (u-displacement, v-displacement),
• The 3d mode declares three default dofs per node (u-displacement, v-displacement, w-displacement),
• The 2dMindlinPlate mode declares three default dofs per node (w-displacent, u-rotation, v-rotation). Strain vector contains $\kappa_{xx}$, $\kappa_{yy}$, $\kappa_{xy}$, $\gamma_{xz}$, $\gamma_{yz}$. Stress vector contains $m_{xx}$, $m_{yy}$, $m_{xy}$, $q_{xz}$, $q_{yz}$.

• The 3dShell mode declares six default dofs per node (displacement and rotation along each axis).
• The 2dBeam mode declares three default dofs per node (u-displacement, w-displacement, v-rotation).
• The 2dIncompFlow mode declares three default dofs per node (u-velocity, v-velocity, and pressure). The default number of dofs per node as well as their physical meaning can be overloaded in particular dof manager record (see section 4.2).

  The further records describe particular domain components - OutputManagers, DofManagers, Elements, CrossSection models, Material Models, Boundary and Initial Conditions and Load time functions.
