Hello Everyone,<\/p>\n
I did a bending test and exported these stresses in a text file. Now, I am trying to map these stresses to another static structural where I want to apply a thermal load. In the new static -structural the CAD is made as bent and stress results are passed-in as pre-stress through External data module. I can able to map the stresses but the stress values are different from the exported stress values. Is this due to the CAD is different? is there anyway to map the stresses even if the cad is made as bent ? How, i can map the stresses and give them as a pre-stress without changing the stress values?. Could you please tell me if i am doing something wrong? or suggest me if there is any other way for pre-stressing<\/p>\n
Note:- 1.) The no of elements are same in the both models and the elements are also linear(meaning nodes are same).<\/p>\n
2.) I can able to map the stresses from the bending test if the CAD is normal(see first 2 images) but I can’t map if the CAD is made as bent.(see 3 and 4 images)<\/p>\n
3.) Please notice the stress difference in the attached images<\/p>\n
