Hello,

 

I've successfully run the freesizing optimization and the sizing optimization. I have quite a decent model now, but I am looking for a way to easily see what plies and in what direction are at a certain location.

 

For example, I want to know at element X there is 1 ply with 0.5mm thickness and 45° orientation together with a ply of 1.5mm etc...

Is this possible?

 

I know I can see every ply of every orientation thickness in the results, but it's really difficult to find the laminate on a certain node in the monocoque.

Regards,

Alexander

    Hi @nodroz

     

    So it is like, you select the element and it should provide the thickness, orientation information, and which plies used the same element...correct?

     

    I will check if there is a script for the same and I will get back to you.
