A question on ANSYS
Sun, 2008-01-27 22:54 - Qianfeng Wang
I want to simulate a thin circular film in xy plane. The force is in z direction. I wanna get the deflecton of the film using ANSYS.
The material is linear, but the deformation is geometrically nonlinear. Also, I consider only stretching behavior, which means that
the bending effect is totally neglected.
Which element I should choose?
Thanks in advance!!

Hello Qianfeng
I saw that Shell 63 with keyopt (1)= 1 covers your objective. Shell 41 is also a membrane shell.
Shell 63 is standard, and you have lots of options in case you want to include other tasks.

Thanks a lot!!! I'm using
Thanks a lot!!!
I'm using SHELL93 now, the quadratic version of SHELL63. I got some useful results, but the bending effect was included.
I don't know how to disable the bending...My method is just making the thickness so thin that most of the region is stretching-dominant region.

Hi
If you have them in command mode, you can easily replace the respective elements, look for the command et in Help.
I just looked into help section for shell93, and it gives you the option, keyopt(8) = 2, for storing midsurface values which I think will give you the results you expect.

help ansys
Hi...
I am a new member in iMechanica. I participate in this discuss because use ansys too. May you have tutorial about drop test used ansys workbench? or anather tutorial by ansys workbench with impact loading.
Many thank
