Is there a tool in FEMAP for stress linearization?

[Srki1982]

Hi,

I am trying to make a stress linearization in FEMAP with NX Nastran v11.0.1.
Is there a tool in FEMAP for that like in ANSYS and ABAQUS?
Thanx in advance

what does "stress linearisation" mean ?

I want to make a separation of stresses through a section into constant membrane and linear bending stresses. I want to specify the section as a path through my model, and I want FEMAP to display the linearized stresses in the form of an X–Y plot. I have attached an example plot from ANSYS. How can I do this in FEMAP?

what a confusing graph ! ... i understand "membrane" and "bending+membrane" and "total" ... but i don't see what's being added to "membrane+bending" to get "total" ?

maybe blaise (a regular poster from spain) can help you with this one ... i know there are several data plots you can do

Hi BlasMolero,
Is this Stress linearization tool a free update or does it cost something?

Best regards

Dear VonFea,
Not cost, is an internal development of FEMAP team, I suppose soon or later will be part of regular FEMAP release, to get a copy contact your Valued Add Reseller of FEMAP.

So this tool only works with solid elements
Blas, do you know if they are going to make this tools to work with shell elements as well?
