Line-Joint

Add line hinges at shells.

Inputs

NameIDDescriptionType
Joint-CurveJ-CurveCurve which connects the nodes that are part of the line joint. Fixes the line-joint's tangential X-direction.Curve
At element identifierAtElemIdIdentifiers of the shell to attach the line-joint to. Use regular expression '&"id1"|"id2"|...' to select multiple identifiers.Text
Y-OrientationY-OriIn-plane direction of the line-joint. Points towards the shell where the joint shall be attached.Vector
Z-OrientationZ-OriIn case the joint's Y-direction is (0,0,0) or parallel to the joint-line direction, the joint's tripod gets created via the joint-line's X-direction and the Z-orientation. The joint gets attached to those elements which the joints Y-axis points to.Vector
DAlpha [deg]DAlphaMaximum angle [deg] between a mesh-face and the Y-Ori for adding a line-joint to it.Number
Ct [kN/m/m]CtTranslational spring stiffness [kN/m/m] of the line-joint.Values take effect if corresponding DOF is set to hinged.Vector
Cr [kNm/m/rad]CrRotational spring stiffness [kNm/m/rad] of the line-joint.Values take effect if corresponding DOF is set to hinge.Vector
Joint DofsDofsList of degree of freedom indexes (0:Tx, 1:Ty, 2:Tz, 3:Rx, 4:Ry, 5:Rz) to be released in addition to those selected via check-boxes. Add a 'ValueList'-component for easy selection or use 'Expand ValueLists' from the component's context menu.Integer

Outputs
