How do I get membrane stresses out of Abaqus?
How do I get membrane stresses out of Abaqus?
(OP)
I've tried the help's linearization steps but I get this error,
Results for all the points along the stress line were not found.
Selected end points and all intermediate sample points must lie within the current display group, and within solid continuum elements. Due to tolerance limitations, intermediate points lying on display group boundaries may fail to meet this criterion. Choose new end points, adjust the number of intervals along the line, or modify the current display group to obtain the stress linearization plot.
So I altered the end points, intervals, and display group. No dice. So I'm wondering if it has to do w/ continuum elements which I've no idea what a continuum element is.
Does anyone know what's happening?
I rather be able to output the membrane stresses and see them as an option the way I can with the Von Mises but I'll settle for just getting output at a select crossection.

So the way I'm trying now is to go to the material and make sure there's several section points.
Then to to the step module and make sure I've turn off the automatic section points and add 1,3,5 to get the top, bottom, and middle cross section point.
Do another run.
Then in the visualization module find the option that allows me to switch to section point 3.
