REDUCEINT,<radius>

This command reduces the number of interaction nodes in the model. This command will only remove interaction node status from nodes. All other node, element and model data will remain unchanged.

The command separates interaction nodes at each z-level into different groups. The groups are then sorted based on the interaction nodes distance from the center of the model. Starting at the interaction node furthest from the center of the model, The distances of the current node to all interaction other interaction nodes in the same group is calculated. Any interaction nodes that have a distance less than the radius will have there interaction status removed and be removed from the group. The command will iterate through the groups' remaining interaction nodes removing nodes in the same manner.

• radius - radius of removal
