Hello
I am looking for the values of the von mises constraints of a plate in the local reference mesh.
In my attached example, I find 4.22KN/cm2
With the ShellvecResults method, I find almost the same values (different from the fact that it is not the average of the stresses on the vertices if I understood correctly).
However I would like to have the constraints as a function of the local vectors and not the main vectors.
The idea is to have several load and support analyses on a mesh, and to add the constraints between them afterwards. So to find the same constraints sig.xx sig.yy ect on each mesh with the same direction.
I use the method with S-Forces, and I recalculate for each constraint (nxx, nyy, mxx.ect) the associated constraints which I combine with the general Von Mises method:
but I don’t find the same values at all, and I don’t think it’s a unity problem. Can anyone help me?
Thanks
