How to output the local coordinate system constraint force situation
Thread Content
The problem we are encountering now is: Since the pipe system is not very straight and there are certain angles between adjacent pipes, the conditions for civil engineering are now required. Each constraint must calculate the stress of the coordinate system along the direction of the pipe (local coordinate system). Is there any direct output method in CAESAR II? Can any experienced friends or experts please help? Thank you very much!
CII is not sure. In AUTOPIPE, you can choose whether to output global coordinates or local coordinates. You don't have to calculate it yourself.
In the output result, there is Local Element Forces, which should be what you need.
I took a look at Local Element Forces, and after decomposing them with my force, I couldn’t touch them. If you have experience with this kind of application, can you tell me if it is available?
Can you explain your thoughts in more detail? Don't quite understand how to implement it?
It seems that the force obtained in this way is still the force in the X direction. I personally think that the poster needs the force in the direction perpendicular to the pipe, but every time I synthesize it myself. Let me see what suggestions and opinions you have.* Down
To explain, the easy solution to force is the synthesis and decomposition of forces. How to deal with torque?
Is it possible to rotate the entire model in the opposite direction of the included angle? Is the force obtained then the same force? I haven't tried it, haha, it's nonsense.
Force and torque are both the synthesis and decomposition of force, isn't torque the same? This is how I always mention the relationship between trigonometric functions.
Thanks for the reply, I'll try to calculate it and verify it.
