Thanks
We have 2007 Edition of Division 2. It is very difficult to apply this to femap. I can now locate the primairy membrane stress with a midplane stress tool. But the next question is how to find the local stress and how to recognize it. In other words, what is the definitation of a local...
We already ordered the bulletin. We also asked a mentor but they cannot explain how to locate these stresses. There is a API tool voor midplane membrane stress, however this gives more than one membrane stress situtation. I also used principal stress and von misses stress, but that ain't enough...
We want to analyse pressure vessels with finite elements by using FEMAP. We analyse also the alternative way but that is not the isue.
We have problems to locate the primairy and secundary stresses according to ASME. I need to find the following stresses:
Pm membrane stress
Pb bending stress
PL...
