This element is used to construct an eight-node brick element object, which uses a trilinear isoparametric formulation.
| element stdBrick $eleTag $node1 $node2 $node3 $node4 $node5 $node6 $node7 $node8 $matTag |
| $eleTag | unique element object tag |
| $node1 $node2
$node3 $node4 $node5 $node6 $node7 $node8 |
eight nodes defining element boundaries, input order is shown in the figure. |
| $matTag | tag of nDMaterial |
NOTE:
- Note: Node numbering for this element is different from that for the eight-node brick (Brick8N) element.
- The valid queries to a Quad element when creating an ElementRecorder object are 'forces', 'stresses,' and 'material $matNum matArg1 matArg2 ...' Where $matNum refers to the material object at the integration point corresponding to the node numbers in the isoparametric domain.
