DEFINITION
ELMCON specifies the element connectivity of each element in an object.
REMARKS
The connectivity should represent either 8 noded brick elements or 4 noded tetrahedral elements as shown below with Nnode representing the number of nodes pre element. The connectivity should be specified in a counterclockwise direction. Applicable object types:Rigid, Elastic, Plastic, Elastoplastic and Porous.
