I have two different mechanical models and one of them only has Hex20 elements, while the other has both Hex20 and Wed15 elements. My question here is, do Hex20 elements belong to the Solid186 family or Solid226 family? Or both? And do the Wed15 elements belong to the Solid226 or other? Finally, what are the main differences?&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>After reading the documentation, what I&#8217;ve observed is that Solid226 elements have piezoelectric capabilities.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Thank you in advance!&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-303905","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry","topic-tag-solid186-1","topic-tag-solid226-1","topic-tag-static-sructural-1"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_subscription":["18369","58821"],"_bbp_author_ip":["23.206.193.146"]," _bbp_last_reply_id":["0"]," _bbp_likes_count":["0"],"_btv_view_count":["2505"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_bbp_status":["publish"],"_bbp_topic_id":["303905"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27791"],"_bbp_engagement":["18369","58821"],"_bbp_voice_count":["2"],"_bbp_reply_count":["1"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["303907"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["303907"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2023-08-29 14:29:07"]},"test":"up202102717up-pt"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/303905","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/303905\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=303905"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
