PARAM, AXI2DTOR

Bulk Data Entry Converts 2D axisymmetric elements in the model to general axisymmetric elements.

Parameter Values Description
AXI2DTOR <YES, NO>
YES
2D axisymmetric elements CQAXI and CTAXI elements in the model are converted to general axisymmetric elements CQAXIG and CTAXIG, respectively. PAXI elements are converted to PAXIG, which allows the elements to have torsion about the axis-of-symmetry.
NO (Default)
