We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

Hi

 

That is very helpful. Thank you. So from this we can say that it is mostly a bending response of the plate and perhaps some membrane also (if we have large deflections due to high loads - so keep large defelctions ON in analysis settings), so shell elements should be ok here.

All the best
