Hi,
is there an easy way to calculate membrane and bending stress for shell elements in Viewer?
- S11 membrane = 0.5* (top S11 + bottom S11)
- S11 bending = 0.5 * (top S11 - bottom S11).
- S22 membrane = 0.5* (top S22 + bottom S22)
- S22 bending = 0.5 * (top S22 - bottom S22).
What I'm trying to do is show a contour plot of the S11 and S22 membrane and bending stresses across a shell model. However I can't find a way to do this.
Thanks,
Pete.
