Hi.
I want to model cylindrical shell that it's thickness varies from top to bottom with this function
h=h0(1-ε cos(θ)) or each arbitrary function that is vary from top to bottom.How can I do this?
Please help me!!! that for my pleasure to be guided with your comments.

Using analytical filed maybe the right way
I have one method which could resolve your problem. Firstly you need define one analytical filed using cylindrical coordinate system. And then the defined analytical filed could be selected in element distribution of shell thickness definition.
