David,

Look at the *vmask command.
Also, in Sheldon's website, there are a number of macros that shows the
applicability.
Look at SFMAP from CAEI.

*vmask,arrayname(1)
*vfun,,comp,
*vfun,,copy,

Subject: [Xansys] APDL-*MOPER,,,MAP

Hello everyone,



I am using the *MOPER,,,MAP command to map temperatures onto my
structural model.

It works just fine except for one thing.



I have 4 meshed volumes in my model and I use a *MOPER,,,MAP for each of
them;



For the first volume, it runs pretty fast (CPU ~ 80s), for the second
one it is a lot slower (CPU ~ 1500s),

the third one (CPU ~ 4000 s) and the last one (CPU ~ 5000s)



There is no difference between these volumes (same mesh) and the arrays
used for input are also the same size.



The only notable difference is the node numbers.

Volume1: node 1 to 7813

Volume2: node 7814 to 15626

Volume3: node 15627 to 23439

Volume4: node 23440 to 31252



It seems that the node numbers influence the performance of the
*MOPER,,,MAP command. That would explain why the mapping of volume 4
takes about the same time as volume 3 and that volume 1 is the quickest.



Does this make any sense?



...and is there a way around it?



Thanks,





David Colombet
