Description¶
To fix the nodal back-displacement degrees of freedom (dof) of a shell use the zero shell displacement boundary condition. This element has two required attributes: the type is set to zero shell displacement and the node set to which this boundary condition applies is defined via node_set. The optional name attribute can be used to give the boundary condition a name.
This boundary condition has three parameters, one for each degree of freedom. Set the value of each parameter to 1 to constrain the corresponding dof.
<bc type="zero shell displacement" node_set="nodeset1">
<sx_dof>1</sx_dof>
<sy_dof>1</sy_dof>
<sz_dof>1</sz_dof>
</bc>
This boundary condition can only be applied to nodes that belong to shells.
