I found that some solvers in Workbench cannot use shell analysis.

Can anyone tell me what solvers are suitable for shell analysis in Ansys?

I would like to know what all the solvers are suitable for shell analysis.

Hey,

It will be easier for us to help you if you explain what your are trying to simulate using shells.

Thanks

All structural solvers support shells.

I want to use shell elements to simulate thermoelectricity because the geometry I am simulating is very thin in the thickness direction.

 (nanometer scale in the thickness direction and millimeter scale in other directions)

But I can't build a simple P-N junction using shell elements in the Mechanical for simulation.
