Element library
In: Data Management
Element groups or element types set are defined in any FE-model. PragTic nowadays has an element library, which consists of these element types:
|
ABAQUS |
ANSYS |
COSMOS |
FEMAP |
MSC.NASTRAN |
|
C3D4 C3D6 C3D8 C3D10 C3D15 C3D20 C3D20R C3D27R |
SOLID45 SOLID92 SOLID95 |
SHELL4 SOLID |
Brick8 Wedge6 |
CBAR CBEAM CHEXA CPENTA CONROD CQUAD4 CQUAD8 CQUADR CROD CSHEAR CTETRA CTRIA3 CTRIA6 CTRIAR CTUBE |
The element library is firmly set within PragTic - the uploaded items are specified in the compiled source code. Any element type is defined in a *.ein file, which can be found in the same directory as the PragTic's executable. The *.ein file is of an ASCII type with a quite simple structure.
I expect that I will be able to produce an accessible element database some time later. The user would define, which element types he wants to upload.
