Answer:
For the unit of the rotation angle, rad was selected in RSTAB.
The results of the node deformation in Table 3.6, for example, are output in mrad, or milli-radians.
The following general formulas apply for the conversion of the angular dimensions, whereby rad must be used for the unit of the arc length dimension:
- From arc length dimension to degrees: alpha = (180° / pi) * x
- From degrees to arc length dimension: x = (pi / 180 °) * alpha
The following formula applies for direct conversion with the [mrad] unit used in RSTAB:
- From arc length dimension to degrees: alpha = (180° / (pi * 1000) ) * x
Note: mrad!
