The pyfe3d module is a general-purpose finite element solver for structural
analysis and optimization based on Python and Cython. The main principles
guiding the development of pyfe3d are: simplicity, efficiency and
compatibility. The aimed level of compatibility allows one to run this solver
in any platform, including the Google Colab environment.

- efficient and simple for linear and nonlinear analyses
- importable and cimportable code
- 6 degrees-of-freedom per node
-
'Quad4R' - 4-node plate with linear interpolation, equivalent to Abaqus' S4R or Nastran's CQUAD4.
-
'Tria3R' - 3-node plate with linear interpolation, equivalent to Abaqus' S3R or Nastran's CTRIA3.
-
'BeamLR' - 2-node Timoshenko beam element with linear interpolation and reduced integration.
-
'BeamC' - 2-node Timoshenko beam element with consistent shape functions and analytical integration.
-
'Spring' - 2-node spring element with 6 stiffenesses defined in the element coordinate system.
-
'Truss' - 2-node truss element with only axial and torsion stiffness. I recommend using the BeamLR instead, which is physically more consistent.
