    Incorrect shear stress distribution in beam bending

    I'm using Ansys, and yes I am quite new to it. I was actually able to figure it with the help of my colleagues; the large deflection caused the stress components to look misleading since they were calculated using the global coordinate system. Since the beam bends to an angle of about 30...

    Incorrect shear stress distribution in beam bending

    Hello, I have modeled a beam in bending but the shear stress distribution seems incorrect. Instead of being parabolic and at a maximum in mid-thickness, it has a neutral axis in the middle and extreme values at the surfaces. How could this be possible? I'm using quadratic solid elements. Thank...
