Refinement

It is sometimes necessary to sub-divide elements, that a more precise evaluation of stresses is possible in RM. All elements will be sub-divided in an appropriate number of elements by entering a number > 1. This input forces a sub-division of both local directions of all elements and stiffeners (value 2: 2x2 sub-division).

Note: Since the number of elements may increase a lot, a refinement may cause a lostof calculation speed.
