Hello

Does anyone know how to create cfast elements in hypermesh? In case is supported, are the stiffness in each direction computed by the Huth formulation?

Thanks for your time

    CFAST elements for OptiStruct are treated as rod elements in HyperMesh. Thus you can create them e.g. in the rods Panel. Also check in OptiStruct  help 'PFAST' for detailed description.
