Hi

Is there an equivalent of \*PARAMETER in CalculiX.  
This keyword helps parameterize the input data in ABAQUS input file.

Thanks

There’s no such keyword in CalculiX but cgx allows yout to parameterize your studies. Check the mkraska’s examples, they make use of these capabilities:

Thanks for the question and the response.  
I’ve also been wondering this. Would it be possible to point out 1 clear example?

Regards.
