Hey Guys, I have to calculate the displacement of a beam having 3 layers. The upper and lower layer being a PZT(piezoelectric material) and the middle layer is a Graphite/epoxy. I was asked to consider element shell91. But for the piezo material, I need to use a diff element supporting couple field analysis. So I chose Plane 13. Now I consider only 2d models. But it asks me for anisotropic table while I have only orthotropic material values.
Can someone help please.
