V0_vector

Purpose

initial element deformation vector for the structural model

Synopsis

V0 = V0_vector (Model,ElemData,Roption)

Description

V0_VECTOR initial element deformation vector for the structural model
  V0 = V0_VECTOR (MODEL,ELEMDATA,ROPTION)
  the function sets up the initial element deformation vector V0 for the structural model
  specified in data structure MODEL with element property information in cell array ELEMDATA
  if ROPTION=0, element release information is not accounted for in setting up V0 (default=1)
