Increased Calculation Performance by Reducing the Nodal Degrees of Freedom
Product Feature
The number of degrees of freedom in a node is no longer a global calculation parameter in RFEM (6 degrees of freedom for each mesh node in 3D models, 7 degrees of freedom for the warping torsion analysis). Thus, each node is generally considered with a different number of degrees of freedom, which leads to a variable number of equations in the calculation.
This modification speeds up the calculation, especially for models where a significant reduction of the system could be achieved (for example, trusses and membrane structures).

Important Principles in Wind Simulation
This article demonstrates how to start wind simulation in RWIND 2, also the required input data and some principals which need to be controlled.
-
RFEM and RSTAB crash at the moment of starting the program. I work with a 3D mouse. Where is the problem?
- How can I show or hide the printout report navigator?
- During the installation, I get error message R6025. What should I do?
- Is it possible to open an RFEM 5 or RSTAB 8 file in a previous program version?
- The output of extreme values is not displayed. Where can I activate the MAX/MIN info?
