3D beam pin-joint source code
3D beam pin-joint source code
(OP)
Hi, All
I am currently doing FEA codes for 3D beam element. I have difficulty to handle pin-joints issue. If one beam having one/two pin-joints links to another beam, I can't handle this situation. I know in some textbooks, there are some equations to deal with pin-joints but I can't make my program right after I coded the program following the textbook. Is there someone know some open source FEA code to handle 3D beam pin-joint issue?
Thanks
