It is good practice to annotate MPM and FEA command files with a description of the calculations being created.
Scripted Input Files
In scripted input files, you build the description by using multiple commands for common elements that belong in a good analysis description. The commands are:
- Title #1
- Give one-line title for the calculations in #1.
- Name #1
- Enter you name in #1.
- Comment #1,#2,...
- Enter any number of arguments. The arguments are evaluated (and they may be expressions) and placed in the analysis description after the word "Comment:".
- Header ... EndHeader
- Enter any number of lines of free-format text to describe the simulations and end the description with an EndHeader command. For example:
Header This simulation will be a 3D analysis of a high-speed impact on an inclined plate. EndHeader
XML Input Files
In XML input files, a Description block can contain any free-format text description of the analysis:
<Description> This simulation will be a 3D analysis of a high-speed impact on an inclined plate. </Description>
