Is possible plot strain Z1 or Z2 material orientation ? Does the symbolism z1/z0 or z2/curve mean the same thing?
Yes you can. Please refer to below in help.
The only Nastran-specific option is Entity with Layers, in which Z1, Z2, and TTIP are available in the drop-down list. Z2 corresponds to the upper shell layer as defined by Nastran. Z1 corresponds to the lower shell layer as defined by Nastran. TTIP (Through-Thickness Integration Point) corresponds to points along the element or ply thickness.
