Composite stress or strain |
Composite stress and strain results from linear static. Output is controlled by the I/O options CSTRESS or CSTRAIN. On PCOMP, SOUT=YES needs to be selected. |
The composite stress file format is self-explanatory. It gives the stress, strain and composite failure for each element and its plies.
The I/O option RESULTS controls the frequency of output for analytical results during an optimization.
