FEM Output
FEM Output
(OP)
Hi everyone.
I try to make finite element model and have run analysis.
So we have the result S11 S22 and S33.
How we can calculate moment and shear from this fem? Any ideas or formulas here?

RE: FEM Output
which code ? (NASTRAN, ANSYS, ...)
what elements ? (3D, 2D, ...)
what post-processor ? (most post-processors, like FeMap, allow you to have a section through the solid model, and will resolve the FEM results to forces and moments on the section face.
another day in paradise, or is paradise one day closer ?
RE: FEM Output
I only get the stress, so can I use the stress to calculate moment and shear force?

For specific advice on how to do it quickly in SAP2000, the SAP2000 forum would be better.
