Reply To: Normal fiber direction in ACP Pre

[sadati]

Hi, 

Thanks for your reply.

I have attached my geometry and specified the desired fiber direction, which should follow the red lines I've marked. To facilitate this, I've extracted the two surfaces of this irregular shape in order to apply shell elements in ACP Pre. However, I encountered difficulty when attempting to apply the fiber orientation normal to the surface. Is there a method for applying fiber orientation outside the surface? Given the irregular shape of my geometry, it is necessary to apply the fiber direction according to each surface. I would greatly appreciate your assistance with this matter.
