~PLSHSTR

 

~PLSHSTR, Comp, LOC, AVERAGE, KUND, KPLOT

Plots stresses and strains in shell elements.

POST1: Shell Utilities

Comp

Stress or strain component plotted.

Comp

Stress or strain component

SX

Stress SX.

SY

Stress SY.

SZ

Stress SZ.

SXY

Stress SXY.

SYZ

Stress SYZ.

SXZ

Stress SXZ.

EPX

Elastic strain eX.

EPY

Elastic strain eY.

EPZ

Elastic strain eZ.

EPXY

Elastic strain eXY.

EPYZ

Elastic strain eYZ.

EPXZ

Elastic strain eXZ.

LOC

Location.

TOP

Shell top face.

BOT

Shell bottom face.

AVERAGE

Interpolates results in nodes.

0

Interpolate.

1

Do not interpolate.

KUND

Way of drawing geometry.

0

Deformed shape only.

1

Deformed and undeformed shape.

2

Deformed shape and edges with undeformed shape.

KPLOT

Way of plotting results:

1

 By DESOL, allows different values in every node of each element, slower for a high number of elements.

2

 By ETABLE, the value plotted is constant for all elements (mean value of nodes). Faster method than previous.

0

 By DESOL.

 

Notes

- To visualize results, the solution axis system should be activated using the ANSYS command “RSYS, solu”.

- Results of the ANSYS (*.rst) result file which will be overwritten to draw CivilFEM shell results.

Possible results that can be overwritten (see command ~CFCONFG)

EPSW (default value)

Swelling strain.

NLSEPL

Equivalent stress.

NLSRAT

Stress state ratio.

NLHPRES

Hydrostatic pressure.

NLEPEQ

Accumulated equivalent plastic strain.

NLPSV

Plastic state variable.

NLPLWK

Plastic work/volume.

- Annotations that are shown in the graphic are automatically deleted to avoid being shown in following drawings. Therefore, if the “Replot” command is used, the new command will not have these annotations, being necessary a new ~PLSHSTR command to repeat the drawing or to send it to a file.
