*BEAMPRO4
Data format:
An arbitrary number of lines with 6 values each
IPRO SHSTX SHSTY SHCTX SHCTY ANGM
...
Restriction:
*BEAMPRO3 with same IPRO must have been previously defined
Purpose :
To define some extra parameters for a beam element
Details :
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| IPRO | Identification number of the property |
| SHSTX | Shear stiffness in local X axis (N) |
| SHSTY | Shear stiffness in local Y axis (N) |
| SHCTX | Shear center position along local X axis (m) |
| SHCTY | Shear center position along local Y axis (m) |
| ANGM | Angle of the center of mass frame with respect to elastic frame (°) |
Note
If shear stiffness is 0, it is estimated from axial, bending and torsion stiffness.
