Some one help me with ANSYS please!

Submitted by moisesjones on

i have what i supose to be an easy optimization problem to do it with ANSYS. it is a plate (1.75mx1.75m) with 4 holes wich i need to determine the optimum location (x,y) and radius (R)  to minimize the maximum Von Mises straining (SQV). Constraint: 0.04m<Ri<0.2m; Af>0.08*1.75*1.75. Af is the total area of holes and Ri his respective radius. P1=P2=1200N/m. Material: Steel: E=200GPa,v=0.29

 

how to show the stress in the thickness direction when you use the shell element with abaqus

Submitted by hua_2001 on

hello,

  •      i simulate some process using shell elment, i find the results have big difference between abaqus and lsdyna. the abaqus results always show the stress in the thickness direction is zero. but the lsdyna is not. i don't know why? if some one know that, please give me some suggestions. i heard that the abaqus can not show that stress component. if not, how can i do to calculate that and fill it into the results file (.fil file). thank you!
