#115: RBE3 vs RBE2
RBE2 is a rigid element which adds “infinite stiffness” to attached nodes which means both nodes to exactly the same displacements. There will be no relative displacement between the slaves.
RBE3 is an interpolation element used to distribute mass and loads depending on the length. RBE3’s aren’t really “rigid” and shouldn’t be used as structural elements. They are for distributing loads.
