When a Safety node is included, you can access postprocessing variables for the safety factor, margin of safety, and damage and failure indices.

The safety factor can be computed with respect to a large number of different isotropic, orthotropic, or anisotropic failure criteria, including user-defined expressions. The new Safety attribute to the Linear Elastic Material and Nonlinear Elastic Material nodes enables you to study the use of materials in the structure, particularly with respect to safety factors. The plot shows the von Mises stresses.Īpplication Library path for an example of rigid body motion suppression: Structural_Mechanics_Module/Thermal-Structure_Interaction/heating_circuit Computations of Safety Factors Applying a Rigid Motion Suppression condition ensures that the model has sufficient constraints for a correct solution.

The cut bolt is detected and treated as if it were a full bolt. Stress plot of a pretensioned bolt that has been cut by a symmetry plane. Membrane, bending, and peak stresses are reported and stress intensities are computed for each such stress classification line. The new Stress Linearization postprocessing node makes it possible to select the edges on which a stress linearization evaluation is to be performed. Other application areas include computing reinforcement in concrete structures and some types of weld analyses. This type of evaluation is common when analyzing pressure vessels and is described in the ASME standard ASME Boiler & Pressure Vessel Code, Section III, Division 1, Subsection NB. Stress linearization is a postprocessing technique where the stresses through a thin section in a solid model are represented by a constant membrane stress field and a linearly varying bending stress field.
