Hello all
I have used Shell63 for modeling a pressure vessel on saddle, there is tow problems that I encounter when reading results!!
1- stress intensity results for top and bottom location are exactly the same while non equal stresses are expected(I used "shell,top" or "shell,bot" for ploting results at these locations)
2- when I use elemant table data (minsc,4) for ploting stress intensity on the top of the element I get different streeses compared to using "shell,top" command! why?

any help is appreciated
