A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
As an initial chapter of this academic work, the background and application scope of DIANA (Displacement ANAlyzer, also named as Diana) software is introduced in brief. Besides, functions and installation are illustrated in the second part. The most important part lies in the introduction of element types, where the shapes, interpolation orders as well as integration schemes of truss elements, beam elements, plane stress and strain elements, plate bending elements, axisymmetric elements, flat and curved shell elements, solid elements, reinforcement elements, interface elements, contact elements as well as spring elements are introduced in detail one by one. In order to render more convenience to beginners, Sect. 1.4 focuses on file system and opening paths, and the working window of DianaIE is also presented in Sect. 1.5. The two key methods for DIANA preprocessing modeling procedure—the graphical user interface manipulation in DianaIE and the editing command console syntaxes in Python language—are also explicated in Sects. 1.6 and 1.7, respectively. Moreover, unit systems in DIANA are also illustrated in this chapter.
