How to define the stiffness (K) of celas2 element
Altair EmployeeHello everybody,
i guess it is easy to solve but i can't define the stiffness of a celas2-element. I created 1D --> springs --> celas2, Chose 2 nodes, Chose dof (3), Chose property, but still i don't know how to apply the stiffness (K).
It tried with PARAM --> ELASSTIF, but it doesn't work.
Thank you in advance

Hi,
it is in property card PELAS
Sorry, it's celas1. Look at below post

CELAS2 is the Scalar Spring Property and Connection that defines a scalar spring element of the structural model without reference to a property entry.
You just have to card edit the element and enter the stiffness value in field 3 called K
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

I tried like tinh said but that works only for celas1 and celas3.
Thank you :)

Dear Rahul,
sorry for my late reply. It works perfekt with PELAS and Celas1, so i didn't try it with Celas2.
