Hello everyone,
I'm trying to analyze a composite shell of a light aircraft fuselage. There are some layers - UD reinforcements in the shell of fuselage, that should follow certain path on the shell. So the layer coordinate system should rotate with the tangent of path - 3D curve. I saw a picture in a science paper, where micromechanics of a fabric lamina was analyzed in ANSYS. The coordinate system was following a centerline of a fiber.
Can anyone give me an advice how to do this? Thank you in advance.
Greetings,
Goran
