Interlaminar stresses in Composite

Rahul_P1

Hi,
how can I see the interlaminar stresses in every Ply while using PCOMPP Property?

By using PCOMPG or PCOMP you can use the SOUT field.

Thanks for some answers.

Best Regards
Michael

Hi,

you need to set the 'output' (SOUT) option in your 'PLY' card and the CSTRESS output request in your loadstep (or global output request). The HyperMesh menus for this is:
- Model browser > Right Click the 'Ply' and choose 'Edit' > Select the output option
- Model browser > Right Click the Load Step and choose 'Card Edit' > select output - CSTRESS
