Cross sections values or spring constants respectively
|
The 4 rows on the right edge contain the cross-section properties of beam and cable elements, or the spring constants of spring elements respectively. Two lines are provided for each element: the first one contains the CS areas or the displacement spring constants, the 2nd the moments of inertia or the rotation spring constants. Setting | Description |
---|
Ax, Ay, Az |
Cross section area and shear areas for shear forces Qy, Qz |
Ix, Iy, Iz |
Moments of inertia (torsion, bending around y, bending around z) |
U, UIN |
Outside perimeter length, inside perimeter of hollow boxes |
Cx, Cy, Cz |
Spring constants for the displacements in x, y and z direction |
CMx, CMy, CMz |
Rotational spring constants for rotations around x, y and z. Note: For the different subtypes of spring elements, the values represent the respective parameters governing the behaviour of the spring element.
