This is a video which is short but effective… very few people actually know you can use interpolation elements to do that !
from basics to Advanced
Every engineer doing FEA Analysis probably knows that increasing the number of elements is supposed to improve the accuracy of...

Hi Cyprien,
This I really like. I notice that quite a lot of people using FEA even don’t know you have to use RBE3 elements to do this kind of interpolation. I learned the hard way, having made the mistake of not interpolating where 3D elements were joined to 2D elements quite often, luckily without the results beinf too far off.
Thanks for the interesting post,
Kind regards,
Wilbert
