PLANE82 — 2-D 8-Node Structural Solid Element Description PLANE82 is a higher order version of the two-dimensional, four-node element (PLANE42). It provides more accurate results for mixed (quadrilateral-triangular) automatic meshes and can tolerate irregular shapes without as much loss of accuracy. The 8-node elements have compatible displacement shapes and are well suited to model curved boundaries. The 8-node element is defined by eight nodes having two degrees of freedom at each node: translations in the nodal x and y directions. The element may be used as a plane element or as an axisymmetric element. The element has plasticity, creep, swelling, stress stiffening, large deflection, and large strain capabilities. Various printout options are also available. See the ANSYS, Inc.?Theory Reference for more details about this element. See PLANE83 for a description of an axisymmetric element which accepts nonaxisymmetric loading. Input Data The geometry, node locations, and the coordinate system for this element are shown in PLANE82. A triangular-shaped element may be formed by defining the same node number for nodes K, L and O. A similar, but 6-node, triangular element is PLANE2. Besides the nodes, the element input data includes a thickness (TK) (for the plane stress option only) and the orthotropic material properties. Orthotropic material directions correspond to the element coordinate directions. The element coordinate system orientation is as described in Coordinate Systems. Element loads are described in Node and Element Loads. Pressures may be input as surface loads on the element faces as shown by the circled numbers on PLANE82. Positive pressures act into the element. Temperatures and fluences may be input as element body loads at the nodes. The node I temperature T(I) defaults to TUNIF. If all other temperatures are unspecified, they default to T(I). If all corner node temperatures are specified, each midside node temperature defaults to the average tempera
