APM Structure 3D Finite element types

When creating a building object model, you can use the following types of finite elements:

  • rod – arbitrary cross sections;
  • flexible elements – ropes;
  • lamellar – triangular and quadrangular;
  • shell;
  • solid state – isoparametric four-node, six-node and eight-node;
  • special elements: elastic links, elastic supports, contact elements, concentrated masses and moments of inertia.

Discussion

Discussion allows you to ask questions directly to the instructor.
