C3D15 and C3D20R elements
(OP)
Hi all,
I am just wondering if someone is working with element C3D15 or C3D20R, could these elements create some problem for extracting stiffness and mass matrices ?
Thank you.
Alain

RE: C3D15 and C3D20R elements
Try to be more specific in your question. You might get an answer then. What are you thinking of in particular? Have you got a specific problem that arises in the use of these elements?
RE: C3D15 and C3D20R elements
In one .inp file, if I create this file just for extracting the matrices, with a simple structure and other elements, I will get my matrices. If I just change the geometry definition (nodes, elements ...) I won't get the matrices anymore
I am wondering if someone is using these elements for an analysis and if it was possible to extract mass and stiffness matrices.
Thank you !
