The minimum number of parameters (motion, coordinates, temperature, etc.) required to define the position and state of any entity completely in space is known as degrees of freedom (dof).

Especially in FEA DOFs has greater importance due to the fact that, FEA simulation solution (time) depends on number of degrees of freedom of the system to be analyze. We will discuss at the end how DOFs affect the solution time.

As we know that, any object or component have infinite number of points and you use FEA to convert infinite to finite ( limited number) of points with the help of discretization for analysis. Discretization i.e. meshing is used to create finite points as elements and elements forms nodes at joining. But all elements does not have 6 dof per node. The number of dofs depends on the type of element (1D, 2D, 3D), the family of element (plane stress, plane strain, membrane, thin shell, etc.), and the type of analysis. For example, for structural analysis of vessel, a solid elements has 3 dof/node (3 transnational) while if you use shell elements at mid-surface may have 6 dof/node (3 rotational and 3 transnational) and if you do thermal analysis of shell, you will have only single dof/node. For beginner, it is quite confusing but once you will practice, will understand the logic’s behind specific number of dofs to different elements and analysis types.

Multifocal glasses, also known as ‘progressives’, correct vision in three distance zones: near, intermediate, and distant.

3D space is more realistic and accurate environment for FEA as most of problems lies in 3D space. Now suppose the line AB is rotated arbitrarily with respect to origin and shifted out of the plane is as shown in Figure 5. Here in 3D space, to define the position of point A or any point on line AB, the minimum number of parameters would be 6 DOFs, i.e.3 transnationals (Ux, Uy, Uz) & 3 rotations (Rx, Ry, Rz).

Now you might understood the concept of degrees of freedom. But as mentioned earlier the FEA solution time depends on total number of dof of the system to be analyze, but How?

You may notice certain changes in your vision as you get older. Many adults over the age of 40 need reading glasses to cope with presbyopia, or age-related farsightedness.

The adjustment period can range anywhere from a week to two months. Your eyes will adjust faster if you wear your lenses as much as possible. While adjusting to the lenses, some individuals have eye strain and headaches, so talk to your optometrist about any symptoms you’re experiencing.

Now let’s discuss about 2D space, when we talk about 2D space, movement can be possible in two directions. Figure 3 shows the point A in 2D planer problem, here in order to define the position of point A completely with respect to origin, you need two parameters i.e. X1 & Y1, it means two dofs (translation X & Y). Suppose if point A is part of line (line AB), in such case you will also need one angle to define along-with two translations i.e. 3 dofs (two transnational and one rotation).

Thus it concludes that DOF is a very important concept. In FEA, we use it for the individual calculation points (used to solve partial differential equations). The total DOFs for a given mesh model is equal to the number of nodes multiplied by the number of dof per node. More the number of dofs, higher the equations & large solution time.

For starters, many patients prefer contact lenses to glasses because of their appearance and the independence they offer.

The term degrees of freedoms is most widely used in various fields like statistics, machine tools, mechanisms, vibration, FEM, etc. Whatever the field, the number of degrees of freedom can be defined as the minimum number of independent coordinates that can specify the position of the system completely.

Switching back and forth between reading glasses and ordinary spectacles can be inconvenient for those who already need glasses to address myopia, or nearsightedness. Many people choose multifocal optical lenses or multifocal contact lenses to solve this inconvenience.

Multifocal lenses are an extremely successful option for presbyopia as it eliminates switching back and forth between reading glasses and ordinary spectacles.

Let’s start with simpler 1D space which will be easier to understand.

Refer Figure 1, the point force is acting at the end of the rectangular beam, Due to downward load application, the beam will deformed to new position, consider the particles in small color region at end of beam and try to identify the location of particles for the new deformed position. Can we say that, we can solve this problem?  We can say yes, if we are able to define the new position (deformed position) of each and every particle of the beam. So how do we get that?   We will get the deformed position, only after identifying the number of parameters to define the new position from existing one. We will need coordinates in different planes, respective angles and distances from the origin, etc. then only we are able to define deformed position.
