!SOLUTION¶

Specifies the analysis type.

This control data is mandatory.

Parameters¶

TYPE=
     STATIC       : Linear static analysis
     NLSTATIC     : Nonlinear static analysis (same as TYPE=STATIC, NONLINEAR)
     HEAT         : Heat conduction analysis
     EIGEN        : Modal analysis
     DYNAMIC      : Dynamic analysis
     STATICEIGEN  : Nonlinear static analysis -> modal analysis
     ELEMCHECK    : Element shape check
NONLINEAR         : Account for nonlinearity (TYPE=STATIC/DYNAMIC only)

Example¶

Linear static analysis

!SOLUTION, TYPE=STATIC

Nonlinear static analysis

!SOLUTION, TYPE=STATIC, NONLINEAR

Notes¶

TYPE=NLSTATIC is a legacy spelling equivalent to TYPE=STATIC, NONLINEAR. For new input, explicitly specify the presence or absence of nonlinearity with the NONLINEAR parameter; the TYPE=STATIC, NONLINEAR form is recommended.
Time settings for dynamic analysis (time increment and step time span) are consolidated in !STEP. In !DYNAMIC, n_step and t_delta are default values used when !STEP is omitted or for backward compatibility; for new input, specify them with !STEP. For details, see !STEP and Step Control.
