Tsai-Wu in RADIOSS Post-Processing

Hello!

 

I am performing a dynamic analysis in HyperWorks using RADIOSS and I've been trying to analyze the Tsai-Wu criteria of my model in HyperView. Apparently, RADIOSS does not output Tsai-Wu directly like in OptiStruct.

I tried searching for tutorials and bibliographic materials about the post-process of dynamic analysis with composites, but had no luck. Is there a way to directly output the Tsai-Wu in HyperView or do I need to analyze the failure by hand? And, if so, how can I do it?

 

Best regards,

Kayo Silveira.

    Today, the only way is to define a Tsai-Wu criteria function yourself in HyperView derived results (I think there are some pre-existing scripts for this covered in the Radioss Composites course), from 2022.3 release (later this year) Tsai-Wu output will be available directly from Radioss.

    Hey Paul Sharp, thanks for your reply! Very recently the new version 2022.3 of HyperWorks came out! However, I tried to understand how to extract Tsai-Wu directly from RADIOSS and I still don't know how to do it. Would you help me out of this?

    Many thanks in advance!
