As part of the superelement approximation technology for fragments (subsystems) of the analyzed structures, a numerical method of determining the characteristics of arbitrary type superelements was developed. The examples of simulation models with two-node superelements demonstrated the efficacy of the method in the structural analysis of elastic systems.
