Hello,

I want to make a static analysis of a composite part, so far I used Hypermesh/Hyperview with Optistruct Solver and Tsai Wu Failure Criterion for my parts.

Now I want to use Puck Failure Criterion in my analysis, is it possible to use Puck Failure in Optistruct Solver?

    Still not available with Optistruct. But in Radioss it is possible.

    Any disatvantages using Radioss? (Apart from learning new modell buildup)

    How can I still use the Optisctruct Optimization Tools - Mabye run a Optistruct Optimization and then use the 'Optistruct to Radioss Conversion' to see puck failure?

    Or any better way?
