emore

Mapdl.emore(q='', r='', s='', t='', u='', v='', w='', x='', **kwargs)

Add more nodes to the just-defined element.

APDL Command: EMORE

Repeat this method for up to 4 additional nodes (20 maximum). Nodes are added after the last nonzero node of the element. Node numbers defined with this command may be zeroes.

Parameters:

q, r, s, t, u, v, w, x

Numbers of nodes typically assigned to ninth (node Q) through sixteenth (node X) nodal positions, if any.

Return type:

Optional[str]

Examples

Generate a single quadratic element.
