Hi guys! I tried to use CROD elements for curved lines generated by spline, and it did not work.
And it gives me displacements like this
Why do elements not work together? I want to model the curve using 1D elements.
Thank you!
Vladimir
Hello
CROD elements only have axial and torsional degrees of freedom

Please try a CBEAM/CBAR element instead

You can review the different element types here

Thank you! For some reason, I thought the CROD was more complex. I have never used it before and decided to try it because I wanted to use it for a simple optimization example. I will change to beam elements.
with PBEAM and PBEAML everything works perfect.
