    stresses at perpendicular shell elements. problem?

    rb1957, I was asking about using cweld to joint shell elements with other perpendicular shell elements as compositecurves said. In this case there is no pinned joint am i right?

    stresses at perpendicular shell elements. problem?

    what is the advantage of using c-weld elements in perpendicular shell elements? instead of merging the nodes?

    stresses at perpendicular shell elements. problem?

    about solid/shell conection, I used shell elements coincident to the solid faces to transmit the moments to the shell elements of the wall

    stresses at perpendicular shell elements. problem?

    hello, nodes are simply merged. I've never heard about cweld elements, don't they make the structure stiffener? irq, yes, i am using Patran/Nastran. About averaging, I'am not very used to Patran, could you help me with this? how can i plot results wihtout averaging?

    stresses at perpendicular shell elements. problem?

    hello, I am modeling a structure with shell elements and I am having very high local stresses in the areas where perpendicular shells are connected as you can see in the attached file. In the real strucutre the webs are welded to the rest of the structure. I've heard that perpendicular shell...

    is this four bar linkage possible?

    zekeman, the paralelogram begins with the four links aligned, this is not a "maximum mecanical advantage" position. it is a singularity position.

    can I make a joint stop actuating in a certain moment?

    I forgot to tell that I'm using adams to simulate this. I don't know if I put the post in the correct forum, sorry

    can I make a joint stop actuating in a certain moment?

    Hi everyone, first of all sorry for my english... What a I want to do is the release of to discs Those discs are parallel and conected by bolts. there are also some pretensed string between them so that when the bolts "dissapear" te strings push the discs and separate them. My problem is that...
