I have a curved beam with shell elements, if I have to take the what is the torsional moment in each section what axis section force - shear should I take in Abaqus to find the shear in the top and bottom flange and multiple by their distance to get torsional moment. I have attached the image of the curved beam with coordinate axis for the reference.

If would be really helpful if someone could help me on this!

Thanks
