A finite element model of a simple truss is created, and static analysis is performed.

This example demonstrates how to orient beam elements in 3D.

A plane cantilever is subjected to a transverse load at the tip.

A finite element model of a single-story structure composed of frame columns and a shell roof is constructed and subjected to dynamic earthquake excitation.

Mesh generation utilities are used to create a 3D tetrahedron model of a cantilever beam with a channel cross section.

This example tests the effect of rigid joint offsets in a diamond-shaped frame. The analytical solution is known, and the test is used to verify the correct treatment of offset geometry in a 3D frame element.

Geometrically nonlinear analysis of a cantilever rolling up under the action of a point moment, performed with shell finite elements.

Several nonlinear static analysis methods are used to investigate instabilities in a shallow arch.
