1. | Damage in springs is defined as the maximum value between time 0 and the current time of the displacement versus failure displacement ratio: |
2. | For TYPE13 (/PROP/SPR_BEAM) springs, damage direction 1 is traction/compression, 2 and 3 are shear y and z. |
3. | For TYPE8 (/PROP/SPR_GENE) springs, damage directions 1, 2 and 3 are, respectively x, y and z. |
4. | For quad or brick elements, /ANIM/ELEM/DAM1, DAM2, and DAM3, are available for Material LAW24. These values are the principal values of the damage (values in the local cracking skew). |
5. | For shell and 3-node shell elements, /ANIM/ELEM/DAM1, DAM2, and DAM3, are available for Material LAW15 and LAW25. These values are the principal values of the damage (values in the local orthotropic skew). |
6. | The "SPH outputs" are available with /ANIM/Eltyp = ELEM/Restype (all Restype values; except Restype = THIC or HOURG). The Restype values: DAM1, DAM2 or DAM3 are only available with Material LAW24. |
7. | User variables are only available for shell and brick elements. When an integration point is not explicitly described, returned integration point means the integration point is superior; computed as [(number of integration points in thickness + 1) / 2]. The result is then rounded up to the superior value. |
Example:
For two integration points in thickness, second integration point from bottom (top of thickness) is returned.
For three integration points in thickness, second integration point from bottom (middle one) is returned.
For four integration points in thickness, third integration point from bottom is returned.
8. | For brick elements, the stresses are output in the elemental (corotational) coordinate system for /PROP/SOLID elements, and in the orthotropic material coordinate system for /PROP/SOL_ORTH elements, when corotational formulation is used. For all other cases the stresses are output in the global coordinate system. |
9. | The option /ANIM/ELEM/SIGX is only applied for shell elements. For brick elements, /ANIM/BRICK/TENS must be used. |
10. | In /ANIM/ELEM/SIGX and /ANIM/ELEM/SIGY, shell stress is located on the center of the element. |
11. | The option /ANIM/SHELL/EPSP given for Material LAW25 the plastic work output. |
12. | THIN is only available with Eltyp = SHELL. |
13. | THIN is computed as: |
14. | With ERROR/THICK, an estimated error on shells and 3-node shells thickness is computed as follows: |
Nodal thickness is computed as:
where, A(Ek(n)), t(Ek(n)) are the area and thickness of element Ek(n) containing node n.
Then the thickness error is evaluated for each element E, using the formula
15. | Using /ANIM/BRICK/ORTHDIR with properties 6, 21, and 22 will output 3 real values of angle in unit [deg]. Defining rotation matrix R, to go from global reference system to orthotropic reference system: |
Rotation matrices
A rotation of radians about the x-axis is defined as:
Similarly, a rotation of radians about the y-axis is defined as:
Finally, a rotation of radians about the z-axis is defined as:
The angles are the Euler angles:
16. | The Schlieren contour value is computed using . RADIOSS outputs using c - 1. The constant ‘c’ can be updated using HyperView by creating a Derived Result: |
17. | The option SIGEQ is available with Eltyp = SHELL or BRICK only. Each material law, in RADIOSS has its own yield criterion to calculate the equivalent stress. For some it is von Mises; for others, it is Hill or Barlat or something else. |
18. | The option PLY is only available for SHELL. In this case, composite shells using the plyxfem formulation or modeled with one shell/ply. Each created shell is offset from the original shell to its true position. |
Note: | The size of the animation files may be highly increased. |
19. | For brick elements using LAW51, the following options are displayed per phase: |

/ANIM/ELEM/DENS
/ANIM/ELEM/ENER
/ANIM/ELEM/SSP
/ANIM/ELEM/EPSP
/ANIM/ELEM/TEMP
