(What beam type is used in Simulate?)
by Anautics
<body><p>Are the beam elements created by the beam idealization in Simulate: Euler or Timoshenko beam elements? </p><p></p><p>From <a href="http://support.ptc.com/help//creo_hc/creo30_sim_hc/usascii/index.html#page/sim/simulate/modstr/elements/reference/beam_el.html" title="http://support.ptc.com/help//creo_hc/creo30_sim_hc/usascii/index.html#page/sim/simulate/modstr/elements/reference/beam_el.html">PTC Creo Direct 4.0 Help Center</a>, the recommendation on beam aspect ratio suggests Euler beam elements are used? If so, is there any way I can change the beam type to Timoshenko? Or is the only option to do a solid mesh?</p><p></p><p>Thank you.</p></body>
