Dear colleagues,

I have one question concerning the TSHR (transverse shear stresses) output request in application of Thick Shell S8R elements in Abaqus/standard. 

the follow qarning occurs:  Output request tshr is not available when *transverse shear stiffness is specified on the *shell section definition or a material in the shell has been defined without *elastic

 Can anybody please help with an advioce or two, on how to solve this?

all the best

Hi,

 I am relatively new in abaqus environment and i have a question about relatively easy topic. But i would like to ask kindly for your assistance.

I a working on a model - regarding bending of tubes. I would like to connect or constraint 4 elements (rigid or deformable it doesnt matter - placed in one plane, equaly spaced in one plane, around the tube's lonitudial axis),

to a single Ref. point positioned in the center axis of the tube. I want to do that in oredr to achieve behaviour of this 4 elements composition, as one. Therefore. by adding load to
