re: thread824-202904
Hello-
two quick concerns I have: 1) rotational dof incompatability b/t hexes (have 123 only rot. dof) and quads (1-5, no 6)creating problems?--does this approach necessitate an RSSCON? 2) no thru thickness stress for the
quads which approximate the honeycomb facesheet. this...
Hi All--
Yes, i think that my original assumption of compound moments (bi-planar) summing to a "fictitious" corner was
overly conservative--taking a rather generous radius in account gives me positive margins--also, there is a redundant load path in this weldment that I'm not counting on (more...

here's a sketch of what I'm talking about--apprently it's
common practive to "pullback" a weld from a corner

My question pertains to welding of a rectangular (or square)
tube that is in double bending (M1 and M2). At the corners,
the moment is additive, creating substantial peaking at a
weld (of any type). The reason for this is that the actual
throat or weld stress area is theoretically a singularity...
