Geometric Nonlinearities 1

[moliPHD]

Hi friends,
I need to simulate a nonlinear geometry in Ansys APDL, I use solution control box where I choose "large displacement", is it sufficient? or I have to specify strain/stress variation of material?
best regards

in Ansys, Large Displacement is a catch-all phrase for large strain and large displacement. go to the command line and type help,nlgeom.

I don't know about Ansys APDL but in Ansys Workbench you activate nonlinear calculations by "Large deflection"

Thank you so much friends
