Description

Strain

Strain results from linear static analysis. Output is controlled by the I/O Option STRAIN.

For each iteration, the following header is used:

iter

Iteration

Numlds

where:

iter

is a keyword denoting the beginning of a new iteration.

Iteration

is the Iteration number.

Numlds

is the number of load cases for which this output is created.

Each iteration section is divided up by subcase. Output for each subcase starts with a line in the following format:

Id

Number_of_els

STRN:Spc_id

where:

Id

is the output identification number for the subcase. This is not the same as the subcase ID used in the input data.

Number_of_els

is the number of elements for which this output is requested.

STRN

is a fixed keyword.

Spc_id

is the SID for SPC's referenced by this subcase.

Datatype

is a keyword indicating the type of subcase involved.

(LOAD) declares data is for a linear static subcase.

Strain information is then provided, for each element, in the following format:

EID

Strain1

Strain2

Strain3

Strain4

Strain5

Strain6

Strain7

where:

EID

is the element identification number.

Strain1

is von Mises strain for 2D and 3D elements, or Axial strain for 1D elements.

Strain2

is Normal X-strain at Z1 for 2D elements, Normal X-strain for 3D elements, or Axial strain for 1D elements.

Strain3

is Normal X-strain at Z2 for 2D elements, Normal Y-strain for 3D elements, or Axial strain for 1D elements.

Strain4

is Normal Y-strain at Z1 for 2D elements, Normal Z-strain for 3D elements, or Axial strain for 1D elements.

Strain5

is Normal Y-strain at Z2 for 2D elements, Shear XY-strain for 3D elements, or Axial strain for 1D elements.

Strain6

is Shear XY-strain at Z1 for 2D elements, Shear YZ-strain for 3D elements, or Axial strain for 1D elements.

Strain7

is Shear XY-strain at Z2 for 2D elements, Shear XZ-strain for 3D elements, or Axial strain for 1D elements.
