2D Element Elliptical Mesh
The information supplied on this page provides a description of a regular warped grid of 2D elements, which is subsequently used to generate the structural model. The units of length are reported on the dialog, alongside a sketch of the structural form.
2D Element Orthogonal Mesh
The information supplied on this page provides a description of a regular grid of 2D elements, which is subsequently used to generate the structural model. The units of length are reported on the dialog, alongside a sketch of the structural form.
2D Element Skew Mesh
The information supplied on this page provides a description of a regular warped grid of 2D elements, which is subsequently used to generate the structural model. The units of length are reported on the dialog, alongside a sketch of the structural form.
Spacer Properties
This defines the properties of a spacer chain made up of a series of spacer elements. Each individual spacer chain has its own unique spacer property number. The properties determine how the nodes along the spacer chain are controlled during the form-finding process.
