Hi all,

/ANIM/VECT/CONT
/ANIM/VECT/FOPT
/ANIM/NODA/DMAS
/ANIM/ELEM/ENER
/ANIM/ELEM/EPSP
/ANIM/ELEM/HOURG
/ANIM/ELEM/VONM
/ANIM/ELEM/EPSP

    Hi Kin Poh,

     

    with /ANIM/SHELL/TENS/STRESS/ALL and /ANIM/SHELL/TENS/STRAIN/ALL keywords we can output the stress and strain for all plies in the composite material.

    Did you provide any failure cards for the composite (like /FAIL/LAD_DAMA, which describes the Ladeveze failure model for delamination (interlaminar fracture)).

    If so, you can input /ANIM/SHELL/IPLY/MAXDA, /ANIM/SHELL/IPLY/DAM keywords in the engine file for extracting damage parameters.
