Hi,

I need to model a membrane in an assembly, and the membrane need to have certain pre-tension. Can anyone provide any tips how I can apply the initial pre-tension in the membrane elements? Would "pre-tension" option work? Or "Initial condition, type=stress"? Which one is appropriate?

Thanks a lot.
