    ANSYS WB Element Type - Shell281

    Thank you Rick. I tried your suggestion, and it worked. The whole process took a long time, so I experimented with other surface types in Solidworks that ANSYS WB would allow me to set as shell elements. It turns out that a "Boundary Surface" works the best. Thank you for your post, though!

    ANSYS WB Element Type - Shell281

    Hi All, I designed a shell of an airfoil in Solidworks, and I imported it into ANSYS Workbench 13 to model. The shell is 5 millimeters thick, and it is going to be a composite shell. As such, I need it to be of the "Shell281" element type with 6 Degrees of Freedom. I inputted "ET,matid,281"...
