Hi all,
i have a problem with Beam Element Analysis in Cosmos.
we know the standard steps for beams :
1. treat all members as beams
2. Define joints,
3. Apply loads and constraints and solve.
but if i go back to SW and make modification to the model(sayadding another memeber), come back to cosmos and "update allcomponents"the joints remain at the same point corresponding to theprevious model(non modified), to solve this if i go back to editjoints and say calculate, the loads get misplaced, they dont remainin same place, or if i apply a new load ata point it gets misplacedto a new random joint. Is it a bug or am i missing something.
it would be great if i get a solution for this.
thanks in advance
Sarnath.
