Unexpected Results - Advice Required

Altair Forum User

Hi All,

 

I have set up a model of a pipe section and tried to subject it to torsion.

The analysis completes but I have some unexpected results. 

I would expect the stress to be circumferential rather than axial.

 

Have I set up the model incorrectly?
