Hi!
I'm trying to obtain non-layered results for cquads elements (non-linear strains, strain tensor)using .f06, in that file I can see the results for Z1 and Z2, exactly as they appear in Patran, but the cuestion is: how can I obtain the results for non-layered option, or at least what calculation Patran is doing to obtain them?
thanks.
