Product: Abaqus/Standard
Benefits: A number of new elements were added to the Abaqus/Standard element library. These elements add modeling flexibility for coupled thermal-stress, coupled pore pressure-displacement, and coupled temperature-pore pressure-displacement analyses.
Description: All the new elements are listed in Chapter 16, “Summary of changes.”
