I have observed several problems, including extreme distorted elements (solution did not finish...) "not enough data points provided", amongst others.

Hi all, I am making a simple model which includes concrete and steel. For steel I am using non-linear plastic properties (TB,KINH...) and that works perfectly. This has worked perfectly also in other models. Now I also want to include concrete material in the model, including its non-linear...

All, Thanks for your responses. Apparently we have been ordering metric bolting according to ASTM A193 for a few months now, and we are getting something supplied to us. I don't hear the accountants complaining that the prices have gone up and I don't hear the purchasers complaining that the...

All, We are a globally operating company who order bolts (and other materials) regularly. Upon client request or upon availablity, we sometimes order UN size bolting and sometimes order metric size bolting. In USA we order UN bolting according to ASTM A193 or ASTM A320. In WOUSA we order...

I am not sure if this is what you are looking for, but, * you can edit and create any input file with any ascii editor. I use HIGH-lighter FEM version 1.7, which recognises Ansys commands. I don't remember where I got it, but You'll find it. * From Ansys you can input the entire text with the...

I see that SHELL93 is no longer supported in my version (12.1). It may still work, but make sure that all functions are still working properly. I succesfully did a buckling analysis with SHELL63, but there were no curved surfaces...
