    Stress in midside nodes of plane 8-node elements

    Hi It is not possible to get the midside nodal stress values for a plane 8-node element in ansys apdl. Ive read in other forums that this is because the data is redundant. Do you agree and if so, why? The displacements are of a quadratic formulation, but isn't that also true for stress. I...

    Highly stressed volume approach in ANSYS apdl

    Hi all at Eng-tips I i'm getting better and better at the apdl-language, even though i still think its a bit daunting. I've started to work on a technique to extract the highly stressed volume in a component for fatigue life assessment. In short, the highly stressed volume of the component...

    Getting different 1st principal stress results with apdl script and workbench

    Hi I have a simulation where i use a *get command to extract stress from a specific node. When i check my result with the "Maximum Principal Stress" using a stress probe option in the vertex at the node, i am getting a different result. the GET command used is: *get, HS_10, node, HS_nodenum2...

    Extracting stress in intersecting points of bodies

    Hi I've setup this model in Ansys workbench. It's a 2D model, and it has been sliced and combined in Designmodeler to make the mesh comply to the specified lines. I would like to extract the stress in this intersection (Marked by the two green dots), but i'm getting an error: "You have a result...
