Description

Defines a spring boundary condition to be used for mechanical analyses using the Elmer solver.

introduced in version 1.0: The spring constraint can be used for the equations Deformation and Elasticity.

Usage

  1. Either use the toolbar button FEM ConstraintSpring or the menu Model → Mechanical Constraints → Constraint spring.
  2. In the 3D view select the objects the constraint should be applied to, which have to be faces.
