hope you are doing great! I have some difficulty with my project. I am conducting a stress analysis of a composite bolt flange with a hub. My problem is that I cannot find a way to ensure the continuity of my fiber direction. I think it might be related to my orientation selection; I cannot define it correctly. If someone has any suggestions, it would be very helpful for me. Thank you!

Hello,

You can try the following: Try displaying the stress along the first principal fiber direction by inserting a Normal Stress result object and setting the Orientation option in the Details View to X Axis. Additionally, setting the Coordinate System option to Solution Coordinate System is recommended. This could help you review the results in the direction of the fibers and ensure their continuity.
