I am carrying out a residual stress analysis where in I found stress values are differing by 50 to 70 MPa. Stresses developed in one model are stored using ISWRITE and are read (ISFILE, READ) into different model with similar mesh and geometry. After comparison, the above difference is observed...
Hi All,
I am trying to create a initial stress file using iswrite,on so that I could use this file as input to another analysis. Problem is, my current analysis has seven loadsteps and I want to store stresses from my last loadstep(i.e. 7th). I have used LSWRITE, 1 and 2 and 3.....UP TO 7 and...
Hi Brian,
Thanks for your tip. It works very well. I am getting the exact stress distribution in new model by using ISFILE with Contact elements.
Cheers

Hi friends,
I am using Ansys to model residual stresses. I have got the stresses and saved in file.ist using iswrite,on. Now I want to read these stresses into different model but same mesh as the one used to create residual stresses.
The problem is the second model consists of CONTA173 and...
Hi,
I have two cantilever beams (3d) meshed with SOLID 45 elements arranged one over the other. Contact elements (CONTA173 and TARGE 170)are generated between them. In first loadstep I want to bend them and in second load step, I want to apply a surface load (pressure). Contact elements between...
