Fields
| Field |
Contents |
| EID |
Element identification number. (Integer > 0) |
| PID |
Property identification number of a PSHELL entry. (Integer > 0; Default = EID) |
| Gi |
Grid point identification numbers of connection points. (Integers > 0, all unique.) |
| THETA or MCID |
Not used. |
| ZOFFS |
Not used. |
| TFLAG |
An integer flag, signifying the meaning of the Ti values. (Integer 0, 1, or blank) |
| Ti |
Membrane thickness of element at grid points G1 through G3. If "TFLAG" is zero or blank, then Ti are actual user specified thicknesses. See Remark 3. for default. (Real > 0.0 or blank, not all zero.) If "TFLAG" is one, then the Ti are fractions relative to the T value of the PSHELL. (Real > 0.0 or blank, not all zero.) |
- The continuation is optional. If it is not supplied, then T1 through T4 will be set equal to the value of T on the PSHELL entry.
