the solution is symple: use etable data in this way: ETABLE,S1,S,1 Etable,s2,s,2 etable,s3,s,3 SADD,S12,S1,S2,1,-1, , SADD,Sisochr,S12,S3,1,-1, with this solution the problem is solved but does anybody knows if there is an ansys function to do this?. thanks

Hello Does anybody knows how to plot the isochromatics on ansys? In a plane stress problem with one sigma =0 I want to plot de diferecen between the othes two sigmas. The null sigma can be S1 or S2 or S3 (Is not possible to know which one) them i can´t do it with etable thanks

thank you very much you really help me with my problem!

Ok I will study in the help all you say,I will post my impresions them (probably tomorrow). Today unfortuanetly I had no time for ANSYS... Thank you very much for the help!

Hellow If i make a command like "vsbv,1,2" then a new line with a number is created. If i want to store the number of that line is there any way? I can see the number of the new line in ANSYS output window (not GUI) then I think there can be a way to store the name of the new line/es. Thank...

pln, s, int is the same than plnsol, s, int? and? is that in fact sigma1-sigma3 or is (sigma1-sigma3)/2? I will use the sugestion of element tables to check it. Thank you very muck TGS4! Now I remember I studied in a handbook of ansys something similar than you are sugestion cbrn, in the work I...

Is there any posibility to use plnsol (or other command) to plot the diferent between principal1 and principal3 stress (Tesca)? thank you very much

the problem is solved with the vovlap command sugested by doatis (is similar than the idea i had in my fist post as you can read in the upper), this is the first solution and probably not the best one. I simply do what doatis sugested I used glue command in combination with vovlap. 1) create an...

Thanks everybody for the sugestions I´m really learning a lot. Ok my problem is that a have a solid with a number of holes, this number changes because I´m making a *.lgw file to solve many problems (dependns of the value given by a *SET command). I know the place where the holes are going to be...

looks like I have to study more. I will try you sugestion, I have to take a look to documentation about commands you sugest. thanks!!. This is all... by the moment ;) Jose (studing new commands)

Hi I´m making a job with ANSYS and I use smrtsize function to mesh my solid. I want to study the propieties in a very particular place of the solid (but I need to built the whole solid which is quite complicated, and substructuring is not posible) then I want a fine mesh in a specific zone and a...

thanks cbrn I´m going to study more about hard points, I have tons of documentation to study!! Thank you very much for the sugestion

DonTonino your answer was really usefull thank you very much. I solved my problem as follows: 1) I create my own nodes with N command 2) I mesh the geometry 3) I use "NUMMRG, node, ,,,low" the command sugested by DonTonino 4) I use F and D command to set forces and displacements Ok I have my...

Hi, I´m making a job with ANSYS I want to do it all with a *.lgw archive (all commands). The geometry is ok, then I make some Keypoints (K command) where i want to put some structural displacements and forces with FK and DK comands. After that I do a Smartsize (SMRTSIZE command) and then i mesh...

hi mihaiupb 1) The problem making 6 holes in one cylinder is using de gui, making the holes with command lines there is no problem (in my experice). This is one of my fist step in ANSYS, I have no particular interest in this problem because I solved it after using commands (I like lgw files...
