NODE
4. Third coordinate of the node.
5. First direction cosine of the normal at the node (optional).
6. Second direction cosine of the normal at the node (optional). For nodes ente red in a cylindrical
or spherical system, this entry is an angle given in degrees.
7. Third direction cosine of the normal at the node (optiona l). For nodes ente red in a spherical
system, this entry is an angle given in degrees.
The normal will be used only for element types with rotational degrees of freedom. See Part VI,
“Elements,” of the ABAQUS Analysis User’s Manual.
Repeat this data line as often as necessary.
