Surface Stiffness Modification

Modification Type

The surface stiffnesses can be modified in various ways:

  • Total stiffness: All elements of the stiffness matrix are uniformly multiplied by the factor "k."
  • Partial stiffnesses, weights, and masses: The elements of the stiffness matrix and the weight can be modified by specific factors.
  • Stiffness matrix elements: Each element of the stiffness matrix can be influenced by a factor.

Settings

For US and Canadian standards, there are some modification options to apply stiffness factors in compliance with the standards.
