In SPACAR Light, we're only considering one type of element: the 3-D flexible beam element. Also, the type of analysis is only going to be static (including natural frequencies and buckling loads). Both choices are well suited to the analysis of flexure mechanisms and reduce complexity for the user. | In SPACAR Light, we're only considering one type of element: the 3-D flexible beam element.

Generally, these input argument are straight-forward. On the following pages, each input will be detailed. There is a [[walkthrough|walkthrough example]] in which all steps towards a simulation are explained. For complete reference, the [[full_syntax|full syntax list]] provides details of each field and property. Additional [[spacar_light_examples|examples]] of models are also available. | Generally, these input argument are straight-forward. On the following pages, each input will be detailed.
