ST7-1.57.20.12 Beam and Shell Offsets
Offset attributes are a convenient way of incorporating eccentricities into a model without modifying the connectivity of the mesh. This Webnote explains how Strand7 implements offsets for beam and plate elements; comparisons are made between models with offsets and equivalent models using rigid links. The Webnote also shows how displacements in offset elements are calculated from the nodal results. The information presented applies to Strand7 Release 2.4.5 and later.
Consider a node on the...
