Sometimes, structural elements, such as beam elements and truss elements and so on, are needed in calculations. They are mainly used in civil engineering. It would be best if relevant options could be directly provided when meshing the grid, but it is also acceptable if the possibility can be provided for users to implement such units themselves.
