General Description

Element Type

• This element provides geometrically nonlinear isogeometric spatial Bernoulli beam^[1].
• Torsion without warping is included
• The element formulation can handle arbitrary orientations of the cross section along the beam.

Degrees of Freedom

The elements uses three translatoric degrees of freedom (Disp_X, Disp_Y, Disp_Z) and a rotational degree of freedom (Rot_Tan) at each control point.

Parameter Description

Compulsory Parameters
Parameter	Values, Default(*)	Description
MAT	EL-MAT int	Linking to a material input block
INT_TYPE_BEAM_3D_NURBS_KLRod	FULL, USER	Control of integration type. If USER, the optional Parameter GAUSS_U (and GAUSS_V) has to be defined
CROSS SECTION	DIAMETER = float	circular cross section defined ba the diameter. A = d^2π/4, Iy = Iz = d^4π/32, It= d^4π/32
	HEIGHT = float WIDTH = float	rectangular cross section defined by height and width. A = h*w, Iy = h^3*w/12 Iz = h*w^3/12 It= min(h,w)^3*max(h,w)/3
	AREA = float IY = float IZ = float IT = float	cross section defined directly
AXIS	AXIS float1 float2 float3 float4	Definition of the cross sectional principal axis. Second axis is perpendicual to first and tangent of the curve. float1 is the position on the curve and float - float4 the direction (x,y,z). Base vectors are normalized and linearly interpolated for postions inbetween the defined ones. Axes for start and end knot of the NURBS curve are mandatory.
Optional Parameters
Parameter	Values, Default(*)	Description
GAUSS_U	GAUSS_U = int	Number of Gauss point per element. Must only to be defined when INT_TYPE_BEAM_3D_NURBS_KLRod = USER
