Finite Element Modeller – Knuckled Panels - *12​.1​.SP4*

Description

Knuckles in knuckled panels are now considered to some extent in idealisation and FE modelling. When the bending radius is larger than 0.3 * intended element size the knuckle will be part of the idealised or FE model. Smaller radii are neglected.

Benefits

Improved accuracy.

Compatibility Constraints
