Isoparametric triangle

Non-constant thickness; discontinous change in thickness possible on edges of elements.

Nodes

The element has 3 to 6 nodes. Midside nodes may be omitted.

Each node has displacements $[u,v]$ and temperature $[T].$

Faces (Edges)

The element has 3 edges, which are (considering the nonzero thickness) regarded as faces. Face normals point outward from the element.

Face number Node order
1 1 – (4) – 2
2 2 – (5) – 3
3 3 – (6) – 1
