    Hi,

     

    It is possible to enter the initial stress values element by element in the Runname_0000.rad file, by using options /INISHE and /INISH3 for shell elements. It is also possible to write with RADIOSS Engine state files Runname_nnnn.sta for shells. Such a file will contain the geometry of selected parts (nodes coordinates and element connectivity), plus cards /INISHE and /INISH3 defining the stress, strain, and so on, of the shells and 3-node shells belonging to these parts.
