Dear all,
I am using Plaxis 3D Tunnel for the calculation of tunnel lining. I got confused with the notation for the Bending moments M11 and M22.

Could anyone tell me which is the moment acting on the joint between segments and which one is the moment acting in the joints between rings.
About the Normal force N11 should be acting on segment to segment and N22 in longitudinal direction i.e. ring to ring.
Thanking you
