Options
Add/Replace: Enter or replace nodal end release conditions for plate elements
Delete: Delete previously entered nodal end release conditions for plate elements
End Release
Enter nodal end release conditions for selected plate elements with respect to the element's local coordinate system.
Fx: Release axial stiffness of the relevant node in the element's local x-direction.
Fy: Release axial stiffness of the relevant node in the element's local y-direction.
Fz: Release shear stiffness of the relevant node in the element's local z-direction.
Mx: Release bending stiffness of the relevant node about the element's local x-axis.
My: Release bending stiffness of the relevant node about the element's local y-axis.
The following buttons simplify the individual data entries described above:
: Release nodal stiffness of all degrees of freedom. Individual components can be subsequently fixed.
: Restore all nodal stiffness to Fixed conditions
