Hi everyone,
I am currently using ANSYS-13 to study the post buckling analysis of stiffened panels. After performing non-linear analysis on the panel,the post processing results show the transverse normal strain in thickness direction is of the same order as the in plane strains. This...
U can use shell and solid elements to model a laminate. In case if you are using a shell element, there are two options to build a laminate, either use real constants set or use Main menu/pre processor/sections/lay up -- to give the layup orientation, thickness information. you can use either of...
Forgot to upload the load displacement graph... and here it ishttp://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=e93810d8-d5bf-4399-9217-90f43107ebe4&file=simply-supported000.jpg
Right now i have been using ansys to study the post buckling behavior of a composite plate. I have been facing problems while studying the post buckling behavior.
These are the following steps that I had followed to study the behavior;
1. I am using Shell181 element for the analysis.Predicted...
