mass1,mass2
Purpose
Concentrated mass elements.
Description

mass1 places a diagonal concentrated mass and inertia at one node.
In a model description matrix, element property rows for mass1 elements follow the format
[NodeID mxx myy mzz ixx iyy izz EltID]
where the concentrated nodal mass associated to the DOFs .01 to .06 of the indicated node is given by
diag([mxx myy mzz ixx iyy izz])
Note feutil GetDof eliminates DOFs where the inertia is zero. You should thus use a small but non zero mass to force the use of all six DOFs.
For mass2 elements, the element property rows follow the format
[n1 M I11 I21 I22 I31 I32 I33 EltID CID X1 X2 X3 MatId ProId]
which, for no offset, corresponds to matrices given by
