We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

Hi

First use SECCONTROL,,1


Then

See the doc./help manual on LINK180.

(Nonlinear iterative solution is needed for tension or comp. only – so use in /SOLU , NLGEOM,ON, and NSUBST etc.).
