Robmodel, ver.2.45



TEXT FILE SYNTAX

ROBMODEL FILE

' ROBMODEL: model of the ROBOT text data file

' NOTE: this file is your guide for text file creation.

' To create a new example text file read the ROBMODEL file into the ROBOT V6

' internal editor (F9 key), and save it after editing under a new name (Alt + S)

' New options of the ROBOT Millennium are marked in bold, italic and in green

'Main syntax rules:

' comments are preceded by " ' " or " ; " characters

' character " = " is optional - may be replaced by space

' character ":" separates different commands in the same line

' character "_" allows to continue current line in the following line

' LABel : ROBOT keyword

' : numeric value

' : a list of nodes, elements or cases, of one of the following forms:

' - ....

' - TO BY EXCLuding

' : name

' [...] : block of commands

' (...) : OPTIONAL block of commands

' {...} : REPEATABLE block of commands

' / : multiple choice sign, a FEW parameters from the list may be used, at

' : least ONE

' | : exclusive choice sign, only ONE parameter from the list may be used

'

' Names:

' Names used in ROBOT must not contain digits. However, if such need arises,

' both the name and the number must be closed by double quotes

' for example, "Steel A36".

'

' Symbols:

' The following symbols are used in the text (d.o.f. shall be chosen according to the structure

' type).

' [F] [FX / FY / FZ / MX / MY / MZ]

' [F=] [FX= / FY= / FZ= / MX= / MY= / MZ=]

' [F=] [FX= / FY= / FZ= / CX= / CY= / CZ=]

' [K=] [KX= / KY= / KZ= / HX= / HY= / HZ=>hz>]

' [M=] [MX= / MY= / MZ=]

' [P] [PX / PY / PZ]

' [P=] [PX= / PY= / PZ=]

' [R=] [ALpha= / BEta= / GAmma=]

' [U] [UX / UY / UZ / RX / RY / RZ]

' [U=]] [UX= / UY= / UZ= / RX= / RY= / RZ=]

' [X=] [X= / Y= / Z=]

' [A=] [AX= / AY= / AZ= / BX= / BY= / BZ=], where:

‘ ax,ay,az,bx,by,bz - values from the range [0:1]

' Units:

' All physical values are entered in units specified in the unit block

' (global or local). All exceptions are formally marked.

'

' Calculator:

' It is possible to use the following arithmetic operations

' for the numerical values: +, -, *, /,^, Sin, Cos,Tg, ArcTg, ABS, SQRT

' For example : IZ=((5*6^3)/12)

' Remarks:

' 1/ formulas must be always closed in parentheses ( )

' 2/ arguments of all trigonometric functions must be in DEGREES

' CAUTION: The result values of the ArcTg function are also in degrees.

' 3/ the user may use multi-level parentheses

' 4/ the user may use such formulas in all ROBOT modules in the numerical fields.
