Hello to everyone,
I am running a nonlinear analysis on Nastran using CBEAM as rivets and CGAP elements and have very high (10E+9) or negative MATRIX/FACTOR DIAGONAL RATIOs(high rotations at nodes) at the nodes of CBEAM elements. Does anyone know how control the high rotations on these noeds...
Hi to everyone,
Thank you very very much Onda for your help!
I have done every thing like in given bdf file and now an example model is working but my actaul model( Fuselage part of A350) with 455699 dof is sitll not working. In reality I have a gap of 3.5 mm between two shells,even I have...
Hi Onda,
Thanks! I have tried everything but in vain.
Anyhow waiting for your your example model modeled in cylindrical coordinate system.

Hi,
Thanks Onda for your information!
I have non-coincident nodes and there is gap of 3.649902 e.g
$gap between grid 331869 dof 1 and grid 460605 dof 1 init opening = 3.649902
SPOINT 4611352 4611353
SUPORT 4611352 0
SPC 101106 4611353 0 3.649902
MPC 101106 460605 1 1...
Hi to everyone,
thanks to Onda!
I have modeled the gap elements and have strange results.
Actully I have a cylinderical shape model having some parts inside which have contact with the cylinderical part.
I modeled the linear gap elements between them. I have pressure acting in the radial...
Hello to everyone,
Could anyone give me some information about 1-D GAP elements i.e what they do? how can be modeled? Are they can be used in linear calculations also?
Thanks

Hi RPstress,
I am sorry to say that all the stuff you have said is already known to me also. I think, I could not make my question very clear.
1. 6-6-6-6 means: 6-pleis at 45°, 6-plies at -45°, 6-plies at 90° and 6-plies at 0° are oriented.
2.My question was about the (45°,-45°,90°, 0°|3S)...
I am new to composite engineering and wanted to model a composite material with following information:
Ply thickness= 0.127 mm
6-6-6-6 Layup(+45, -45, 90, 0|S)
here 'S' stands for symmetry.
I am using MSC Patran for modeling and Nastran for analysis.
Could anyone help me how to fill this...
