Shell Section
Retrieve results for shell elements with respect to a cutting polyplane defined by a polyline and an in-plane direction vector.
Inputs
| Name | ID | Description | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| Analyzed model | Model | Model with calculated displacements | Model |
| Shells|Identifiers | Shells|Ids | Shells or identifiers of shells for which to retrieve results. By default all elements are included. | Generic Data |
| Load-Case | LCase | Name of load-case for which to retrieve results. By default results of load-case index 0 are retrieved. | Generic Data |
| Polyline | PLine | Polyline which - together with the direction vector 'D' - defines the section-polyplane which is to be intersected with the shells. | Curve |
| Projection Direction | PDir | The direction vector for projecting the above defined polyline onto the shell. Vector D should not be parallel to the segments of the polyline. | Vector |
Outputs
| Name | ID | Description | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| Analyzed model | Model | Model with calculated displacements | Model |
| Polylines | Plines | Polylines that result from intersecting the shell with the section-polyplane. There may be several in cases where the intersecting polyplane passes a hole in the shell. | Curve |
| Face Indexes | FaceInds | Indexes of the faces of the shell which are part of the section. Each branch of the data tree corresponds to an item in the list of polylines of the output above. The order of the indexes corresponds to the components of the polyline output above. | Integer |
| Meshes of rendered results | Mesh | Mesh of rendered structure: one mesh per polyline | Mesh |
| Curves of rendered results | Curve | Lines of sectional forces distribution (if enabled) | Curve |
| Ntt[kN/m] | Ntt | Normal force [kN/m] in the direction tangential to the section. | Number |
| Nnn[kN/m] | Nnn | Normal force [kN/m] in the direction perpendicular to the section. | Number |
| Ntn[kN/m] | Ntn | In-plane shear forces [kN/m] in local t- and n-directions. | Number |
| Mtt[kNm/m] | Mtt | Bending moment [kNm/m] causing normal stresses in the direction tangential to the section. | Number |
| Mnn [kNm/m] | Mnn | Bending moment [kNm/m] causing normal stresses in the direction perpendicular to the section. | Number |
| Mtn [kNm/m] | Mtn | Twisting moment [kNm/m] in local t- and n-directions. | Number |
| Vt [kN/m] | Vt | Transverse shear force [kN/m] on cross section T=const. | Number |
| Vn [kN/m] | Vn | Transverse shear force [kN/m] on cross section N=const. | Number |
