    Applying a shear stress in ANSYS

    Hi Drej, Thanks for your prompt reply! However, I'm not comparing a physical structure, but investigating the validity of the shape function of the Finite Element by conducting (or attempting to, :-)) a patch test. To do this I need to apply normal and shear stresses in 2D and 3D elements and...

    Applying a shear stress in ANSYS

    Hi There, I'm trying to undertake a 2D patch test for shear (Txy), but I cannot figure out how to apply a shear stress in ANSYS. I am presuming it has to do with applying a pressure, but it will only apply a positive or negative pressure perpendicular (i.e. into or out of) the face. I have...
