.. include:: sub.txt ===================================== Enhanced Strain Quadrilateral Element ===================================== This command is used to construct a four-node quadrilateral element, which uses a bilinear isoparametric formulation with enhanced strain modes. .. function:: element('enhancedQuad', eleTag,*eleNodes,thick, type, matTag) :noindex: =================================== =========================================================================== ``eleTag`` |int| unique element object tag ``eleNodes`` |listi| a list of four element nodes in counter-clockwise order ``thick`` |float| element thickness ``type`` |str| string representing material behavior. Valid options depend on the NDMaterial object and its available material formulations. The type parameter can be either ``'PlaneStrain'`` or ``'PlaneStress'`` ``matTag`` |int| tag of nDMaterial =================================== =========================================================================== .. seealso:: `Notes `_
