Graphics for Finite-Element Analysis

Earl A. Thornton, L. M. Sawyer

Abstract

ELPLOT program is a passive computer graphics system that could be utilized for display of models and responses of general finite-element analyses. Program includes: Wide range of view-orientation selections, number of alternative data-input formats, extensive family of finite-element types, and capabilities for both static and dynamic-response displays.
