Solution of enforced boundary motion in direct transient and harmonic problems

The current versions of NASTRAN, i.e., NASA, MSC, and MAC support nonzero boundary displacements only in the static analysis. Forcing functions in the dynamic analysis formats allow only forces and pressures to exercise the mathematical model. A DMAP alter sequence to circumvent this limitation is described. For the direct harmonic problem, a simple change to module FRRD is incorporated to effect a more efficient use of the code.
