Is there a workaround to the error in the Harwell Boeing dump (HBMAT) of a superelement in 11.0?


Yes, all you need to do is modify one pointer value before reading the matrix file.

COLPTR will be used here to denote the column pointers (of which there are PTRCRD) and ROWIND to denote the row indices (of which there are INDCRD).

In ANSYS 11.0, the last column pointer is incremented by one over the previous pointer rather than pointing to the first numerical value. To correct this error, this column pointer can simply be replaced with the correct value, which will be one more than the total number of row indices, INDCRD.

COLPTR(PTRCRD)=INDCRD+1
