i want to know meaning of shell number in property

haveto

i set user profile to ansys. 

i tried to assign shell thickness. so i create proptery but i can't find PShell. instead shell63P, shell143P etc...

so I want to know why PShell has been disabled  and the meaning of those numbers.

Hi Haveto,

To have PSHELL as property you need to set the solver interface as Optistruct.

Shell63p, Shell143P are different shell properties to be used in Ansys.

So set the profile to Optistruct and you will find PSHELL card image.

Thanks
