# Appendix III
# Instructions for preparing input data for dynamic transient problems
The program DYNPAK has been described in Section 10.6 and MIXDYN in Section 11.5. These programs perform large displacement or viscoplastic or elasto-plastic, transient dynamic analysis of plane stress/strain or axisymmetric problems respectively. The format of the input data is identical for both programs. In this appendix user instructions for preparing input data are provided.
CARD SET 1 DYNAMIC DIMENSIONING (4I5)—One card.
Cols. 1-5 NPOIN Total number of nodal points.
6-10 NELEM Total number of elements.
11-15 NDOFN Number of degrees of freedom per node $(= 2)$ .
16-20 NMATS Number of different material sets.
CARD SET 2 TITLE CARD (10A4)—One card.
Cols. 1–40 Title of the problem—limited to 40 alphanumeric characters.
CARD SET 3 CONTROL CARD (13I5)—One card.
Cols. 1–5 NVFIX Total number of nodal points with fixed degrees of freedom.
$$
\begin{array}{l} = 1, \text { Plane stress }, \\ = 2, \text { Plane strain }, \\ = 3, \text { Axisymmetric problem. } \\ \end{array}
$$
6-10 NTYPE Type of problem:
11-15 NNODE Number of nodes per element.
16-20 NPROP Number of material properties $(= 11)$ .
21-25 NGAUS Integration rule for stiffness matrix.
26-30 NDIME Number of coordinate dimensions (=2).
31-35 NSTRE Number of stress components (= 3 for plane stress/strain, = 4 for axisymmetric).
| 36-40 | NCRIT | Yield criterion: = 1 — Tresca, = 2 — Von Mises, = 3 — Mohr-Coulomb, = 4 — Drucker-Prager. |
| 41-45 | NPREV | Indicator for the previous state to be read (= 1 for previous state, otherwise, = 0). |
| 46-50 | NCONM | Number of concentrated masses (≥1 if concentrated mass present, otherwise, = 0). |
| 51-55 | NLAPS | Indicator for large displacement analysis: = 0—Elastic analysis, = 1—Elasto-plastic small displacement analysis, = 2—Elastic large displacement analysis, |
| 56-60 | NGAUM | Integration rule for mass matrix. |
| 61-65 | NRADS | = 0, Read (r, z) coordinates for nodes, = 1, Read (R, Θ) coordinates for nodes for axisymmetric analysis. |
CARD SET 4 ELEMENT CARDS (11I5)—One card for each element, total of NELEM cards. The node numbers are read in anticlockwise sequence. The number of nodes depends upon the type of element. For four and eight noded elements read only four and eight nodes respectively.
