rb1957, I was asking about using cweld to joint shell elements with other perpendicular shell elements as compositecurves said. In this case there is no pinned joint am i right?
hello,
nodes are simply merged. I've never heard about cweld elements, don't they make the structure stiffener?
irq, yes, i am using Patran/Nastran. About averaging, I'am not very used to Patran, could you help me with this? how can i plot results wihtout averaging?
hello,
I am modeling a structure with shell elements and I am having very high local stresses in the areas
where perpendicular shells are connected as you can see in the attached file. In the real strucutre
the webs are welded to the rest of the structure.
I've heard that perpendicular shell...
Hi everyone, first of all sorry for my english...
What a I want to do is the release of to discs
Those discs are parallel and conected by bolts. there are also some pretensed string between them so that when the bolts "dissapear" te strings push the discs and separate them.
My problem is that...
