    stress at location

    Hi everyone, Is there a way to get the stress at a certain location? This location will not always have a node in this spot. My mesh changes shape so the nodes change, but i still need to know the stress in one spot (to coincide with the location of a strain gauge in experiments ive done)...

    Ellipse

    hi mohdgh, do you use APDL? you need a local coord sys for this, an elliptical one... this works nicely: !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! K,1,0,0 K,2,3,0 K,3,-3,0 K,4,0,3 K,5,0,-3 MAJOR=2 MINOR=3 RATIO=MAJOR/MINOR CSKP,11,1,1,3,4,RATIO,1, CSYS,11 L,2,3 CSKP,12,1,1,3,5,RATIO,1, CSYS,12 L,2,3...

    meshing+kscon

    Hi all, For a Stress intensity factor calculation i need to mesh a 2d surface. I have the problem i get alot of triangle elements, but i want quad only. On the other hand i need singular elements at the crack tip, this location is variable. How can i get singular elements at the tip, but not...

    path definition APDL

    Hi SebaMorgado, I needed this once i did the following: Name nodes before you solve, then you can use them later in the path operation: nsel,all csys,0 N1=node(x,y,z) nsel,all then you can use N1 in ppath: PPATH,1,N1 Hope this helps, bram

    Convection PLANE55

    Hi All, For a combined thermal/structural 2d model of a steel plate im using plane55 for the thermal part. On the surface I want to apply convection and a dirichlet BC. When i apply convection to the plate on element level, the convection seems dependent on the element size. When applying to...
