What are Bar3 elements ?
After meshing, When I check the Body details, under elements I can see Bar3 and Tria6.
What are Bar3 elements here ?
Can someone explain please.
Kind regards,
SId
Hello SId,
Those are the Element Edges highlighted in red (in your image). It's merely FEM body details, which information is not relevant to the solver.
Example: Body with 12 edges, where each edge contains 3 elems: 12*3 = 36 Element Edges (Bar2)
Now if I create a new edge in the ZY plane (shown below), I'm adding 3 new Bar2 elements to the count:
Hello Rafael,
Thank you very much. I understand now
