Patran Results: Shell Force, Force Resultant - von Mises quantity vs. force magnitude?
(OP)
Hello,
If the title is confusing, let me explain. I'm trying to extract loads from a Patran shell model in the x and y directions. I could just separately extract the x and y components of the shell forces, but I noticed there is a quantity called "von Mises". I know that von Mises stress is a yield failure criteria, but is the von Mises shell force the magnitude/resultant? And if yes, then can I just extract it and resolve it into its x and y components?
Thanks

What is it in reality ? don't know, von mises is a combination of principal stresses. Principal loads would make more sense.
another day in paradise, or is paradise one day closer ?
