Converting PCOMP/PCOMPG to PCOMPP

Hello @jerometeoh ,

did you look at this script:

Michael,

Thank you for this.

I cannot find the script in my pc.

But I think I found out that as I am using HyperMesh 2023.1.

Looks like I can just execute 'absorb' within the composite browser, it should yield the same result?

Best,

Jerome.

Hello @jerometeoh ,

did you download the script available as attachment in th elink I shared with you?

Best Regards,

Hi @Michael Herve_21439 ,

I just found the script, it is useful thank you! I like how it executing it one-by-one.

I was trying to use this to convert PCOMP to PCOMPP for some filiment winding pressure vessel application. I am wondering if you ever do that?

Also, how do people typically use 'wound' ply type?

Very thank you for the script!!

hello @jerometeoh ,

“WOUND” is used to represent the filament winding process, where typical coverage of a “ply” can have all of spatially varying thickness and orientation on a spatially varying number of layers.

WOUND today is usually populated from external manufacturing software. It’s just a datastructure though, and if your company has a manufacturing process from which they want to pass data which is spatially varying (including number of layers per “ply”), it can be populated via script.

Hope that helps,

Michael

@Michael Herve_21439 thank you for the clarification!!
