This chapter discusses elements available in Abaqus. It provides an overview of the following enhancements:

• “Support for electromagnetic elements in Abaqus/CAE,” Section 7.1

• “Unsymmetric storage for linear coupled stiffness and viscous damping for connections in Abaqus/Standard,” Section 7.2

• “Thick-walled pipe elements in Abaqus/Standard,” Section 7.3

• “Defining the anisotropic mass tensor,” Section 7.4
