Hi,
I am trying to model the shear of a special composite material that I have designed.
I have modeled a simple block. And simply applied a parallel force on the block. The procedure is i measure the resulted displacement and divide it by the initial length of the block.
The problem i am facing is that i get a very high value of the shear strain (more than 8 times more than it should be).
Have anyone came across that?
Thanks
