About this Block

What it does: Applies material and thickness attributes beam elements. Common uses:
Tips:
  • You can use multiple FE Attributes in an Solid Domain.
  • If no Region is defined, the attribute applies the material to the entire mesh. Use the Region input to define a material in a specific area.
  • When defining a Region for the attribute, all elements need an assigned attribute. Do this by providing one or more additional attributes for all regions, or at least one additional attribute without a Region to apply that attribute to all areas not covered by the first Region.
  • You can use a Scalar Field to define the thickness of the beams.
