Hello,

I have shifted to the Explicit dynamics module and I modelled the PEN material wrapping as a solid with thickness. The problem is I am not getting required deflection, 69 mm. Attaching all the details. Can you please tell me which step I am doing wrong? I have modelled the wrapping as simple FRP sheet over the beam instead of patches of 12.5mm, assuming it won't make extraordinary difference. 

Thanks.
