**v1.01.145** ZZZZ145 — Validation of the RIGI_PARASOL keyword from the AFFE_CARA_ELEM command
=========================================================================================

**Summary:**

This test validates the use of the RIGI_PARASOL keyword from the AFFE_CARA_ELEM command.

Modeling (a) concerns 3D, (b) 2D.

For 3D and 2D, we test:

• several valid combinations of RIGI_PARASOL with translational and rotational discretes with stiffness and damping characteristics [A, K, A+K, K+A].

• several invalid combinations of RIGI_PARASOL with translational and rotational discretes with stiffness and damping characteristics [A, K, A+K, K+A].

This documentation is deliberately brief.
