Z0 options, Property PCOMPP

lerik

I want to ask why I have the same results in the simulations even changing the Z0 option (from TOP to the BOTTOM) of my model.  Does the position of Z0 have a real influence in the analysis results? Or is it only a visualization mode?

If not, how can I really change the position (offset) of my laminate with respect to the import surface?

I tried with another file and it changed the results, I don't know why it doesn't work with the first model...

Hi Lerik,

I think attached video will be helpful.
