Interlaminar Shear Stress between Composite Layers

[bangell]

Can someone help me with looking at the interlaminar shear stresses between the layers of a composite in ANSYS. For now I am working with a single element model that I have used for data verification. The model has 40 layers of the same material at various orientations. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Hi

I have doing to a model similar of you. Alway I have the same warning mensage about the interlaminar shear stresses between the layers but I 'banish' alls warning with /NERR comand (you can put /nerr,5,99999999 that It's the max warnings. You must thinks that it's also a warnning not a error.

I have problems with the density of the composite material becouse I not suro where I must to introduce it (in material propeties or in real constat as /ADMUSA??).

Realy I'm not sure what was your questins but I hope help you.

Regards
