Hi everyone, 

 

I want to view the composite stresses and failure, but somehow there is no possibility to view it in HyperView, see picture.

I am using the composite template in Hyperview, set a global output request for cstress and cfailure. 

Can you imagine why it´s not working?


Thanks in advance!

Seb

    Hi,

     

    for Composites you need to request specific outputs (Global Output Requests), such as:

    - CSTRESS

    - CSTRAIN

    - CFAILURE

     

    And also do not forget to include SOUT in your plies/laminates so that stress/strain is computed for all.

    Hi Adriano,

     

    I did not activate sout in the plies, so that was the mistake.
    Thanks a lot for helping!
