    Ansys beam element torsional stress

    Hi petb, thanks for your reply. I have just replaced the I-beam with a circular cross-section (because I wasn't sure what torsional loads would cause an I-beam to yield). I have applied a small moment at one end such that the beam should remain in the elastic regime. So I have hand...

    Ansys beam element torsional stress

    Hello everyone, Is it possible to extract the shear stress due to torsion from the Ansys beam 188 element? I have created a simple case in which the cross section is an I-beam. One end is fixed while the other end is subjected to a moment leading to torsion. I can see that the I-beam deforms in...
