Restraints

Restraints are applied to the node by selecting any number of the check-boxes in the “Restraints” region. The Fx, Fy, and Fz represent the translational restraints in the global X, Y, and Z directions, respectively. The Mx, My, and Mz represent the rotational restraints about the global X, Y, and Z axes.
