    OBJET3 = 'ET' ('TELQUEL') OBJET1  OBJET2 ;

    Description :
    ____________

    The ET operator constructs the OBJET3 object which results from
    the fusion between OBJET1 and OBJET2.

    This operation does not make sense if the objects are of a
    different type. The type of the result is the same as that of OBJET1 
    and OBJET2. Exceptions are the respectives concatenations of 
    POINT           and MAILLAGE  ->  MAILLAGE
    POINT           and POINT     ->  MAILLAGE (elements of type POI1)


    Contents :
    __________

    The types of object accepted by the ET operator are :
    POINT    MAILLAGE  LOGIQUE   CHPOINT  RIGIDITE  MMODEL   MCHAML
    ATTACHE  BLOQSTRU  ELEMSTRU  SOLUTION DEFORME   BASMOD   VECTEUR
    LISTREEL LISTENTI  EVOLUTIO  CHARGEME STRUCTUR  MCHAML   TABLE
    LISTMOTS MOT       NUAGE     LISTCHPO MATRIK

    Notes :
    ________

    * If the type of OBJET1 and OBJET2 is LOGIQUE, the result is
      the logical conjunction of the 2 objects.

    * If the type of OBJET1 and OBJET2 is CHPOINT, this operation is
      possible only if they have the same attribut of nature 
      (diffus,discret). 
      The result is the concatenation of the 2 objects for their 
      disjointed parts and for their common parts consisting of the
      same components at the same nodes the result depend on their 
      nature:
      - if both fileds have a 'diffuse' nature the value must the same
        at the point.
      - if both fields have a 'discrete' nature the two values are 
        added.

    * If the type of OBJET1 and OBJET2 is MOT, they will have to 
      be mentioned after ET. The result is the concatenation of the  
      two words. If the word 'TELQUEL' (as initial) is specified blanks 
      at the ends of OBJET1 and OBJET2 are not suppressed. See also 
      'CHAINE' operator. 
 
    * If the type of OBJET1 and OBJET2 is TABLE, both must be either
      of "LIAISONS_STATIQUES" subtype or "BASE_MODALE" subtype.

    * If the type of OBJET1 and OBJET2 is MAILLAGE, the sub-meshes of
      SEG2 type are concatenated so that the succession of segment is
      continuous (if possible), except with the key-word 'TELQUEL', that
      forces the respect of the order in which the meshes are given to 
      the operator.

    OBJET2 = 'ET'  TAB1 ;

    Purpose:
    _______

    The ET operator builds the union of the objects contained
    in the table TAB1 of sub type ESCLAVE. These objects must be 
    of type POINT, MAILLAGE, CHAMPOINT, MCHAML, RIGIDITE, MATRIK 
    or MMODEL.

    In the case of POINT type objects, the result OBJET2 is of 
    type MAILLAGE.
