PS:
Also, if I want to keep the same beams (without using RBE2), will it be correct to do:
E/1000 and I*1000
E: Young modulus of the material.
I: moment of inertia.
This means, in order to use the finite elements with the same order of magnitude of stiffness:
- the modulus of elasticity has...
Hi Blas,
Thanks a lot for your explanations, I am always fun of your videos on youtube…
The use of RBE2 elements is convenient indeed, but for this particular case I have a model with a lot of rigid beams connected to “non-rigid” ones.
If I have to convert all the rigid beams to RBE2, I would...
Hello,
I am trying to run a model on Femap made of beam elements. One of the materials of these elements is with very high Young modulus (to simulate a rigid structure).
I could not succeed to make the model working because of this difference in elasticity modulus between two elements of...
