% External Forces [DoF, Value] % Force in y-direction at Node 3 (DoF 6) forces = [6, -10000]; % Calculate the element length h = L

For modeling beams, plates, and shells without the shear locking issues of triangles (though reduced integration is a topic). That is how you move from a user to a developer of FEA

% --- Parameters --- nelx = 60; nely = 30; % Mesh size (x, y) volfrac = 0.5; % Volume fraction penal = 3.0; % Penalty (SIMP) Emin = 1e-9; Emax = 1.0; % Material properties

Start with a simple 1D bar code, then graduate to 2D triangles, then 3D bricks. Download the hot community codes from File Exchange, but most importantly: modify, break, and rebuild them. That is how you move from a user to a developer of FEA.
