Notes
- 1.
This assumption is taken if a cross sectional area A is specified in the first geometry data field. If \(A=0\) is entered in the first geometry field, Marc uses the beam section data corresponding to the section number given in the second geometry field \((I_x)\). This allows specification of the torsional stiffness factor unequal to \(I_x + I_y\) or the specification of arbitrary sections using numerical section integration, see [12].
- 2.
The given second moment of area allows to calculate the side length.
- 3.
SAE stands for Society of Automotive Engineers.
- 4.
The user must pay attention to the fact that not all curves might be properly connected and these gaps must be fixed.
