    Hello,

    the question arised whether it is possible to define more than one pairing constraint in the Shuffling Optimization of a Composite Material. Currently this is not possible, as the pairing constraint is limited to 45/-45 degree fibre orientation angles of the composite. Defining any other fibre orientation angle within this constraint will lead to an error message:

    *** ERROR # 1754 *** in the input data:
    BALANCE and PAIR constraints are only valid for 45.0 and -45.0
    orientations at this point.

    With best Regards
    Jan
