Does anybody know if the following is possible within ansys (v12.1, classic GUI).
I have a 3D shell mesh that is axisymmetric and the 2D profile of the revolute is a complex curved.
The stress varies circumferentially and axially and I'd like to obtain a plot or list of peak circumferential stress versus distance along the axis.
Unfortunately, the nodes around the circumference are not on planes normal to the axis otherwise I could have done it using arrays.
Any help / ideas appreciated.
