ANSYS Version: 6.1

Description:

This macro will maps pressures from a different analysis

Dependencies: Require cfdxyz and cfdpres arrays which represent the point
locations and pressures to be mapped.

Usage:
This macro is used to map pressure from a CFD mesh onto a structural mesh. The
point
! XYZ locations from the CFD analysis must exist in an array called cfdxyz(npts,
3).
! A corresponding array called "cfdpres" must be exist also. This array contains
the
! pressure values corresponding to the point locations.
!
! The database must also contain a component consisting of the nodes on the stru
ctural model
! to which the pressure is applied. It must be named "psurf".
!
!
! define arrays for the pressure mapping onto your structural model

! The mapping operations needs compressed arrays (no gaps)

! but the *VGET fill such that row number is node number
! So we get the data then we compress it before mapping
! Then we expand it again in order to use the SFFUN
