Hello,
I am trying to analyse a part which, ideally, we could consider made of 4 concentrical cylinders (actually, a central cylinder and 3 concentrical rings). On the 3 external rings there is a constant level of initial stresses on each one, differing from that on the other rings. Do you know how this could be done? With ISTRESS, the last defined state would be the only one present, since the others are overwritten. With ISFILE, I should tip in an input file the stresses for each element separatedly, and I am not in the mood for 10000 Copy+Paste!
Any ideas? Thanks in advance!
