The following article describes the use of the <tt>element.quad4d</tt> command.
This command defines a displacement based, 4-node bilinear quadrilateral, whose nodes
are given in an anticlockwise manner as shown in the figure.

=Syntax=
element.quad4d(id,dof1<\sub>,dof2<\sub>,dof3<\sub>,dof4<\sub>,mat)

=Parameters=
{| border="2" cellpadding="4" cellspacing="0" style="margin: 1em 1em 1em 0; background: #f9f9f9; border: 1px #aaa solid; border-collapse: collapse; font-size: 95%;"

|-
|dof1-4<\sub> || The elemental [[|node|nodes]] ||align="center"| integer ||align="center"|-
|-

=Examples=
element.quad4d(2,1,2,10,9,2)
