1D Elements (CBAR/CBEAM via PBARL/PBEAML)

The following strain results are output for CBAR/CBEAM elements defined via PBARL/PBEAML property entries. The Result type: HyperView is CBAR/CBEAM Strains (<TYPE>), where the <TYPE> entry is based on the selected cross-section (TYPE/NAME field) on the PBARL/PBEAML entries. The element strain results can be reviewed for each cross-section type, corresponding evaluation point, at element ends (A or B). The maximum normal/shear/von Mises strains can also be reviewed.

Syntax

CBAR/CBEAM Strains (<Type>)
<Strain Result Output> <evaluation point> (A/B)

Where,

<Type>: BAR, BOX, BOX1, CHAN, CHAN1, CHAN2, CROSS, H, HAT, I, I1, ROD, T, T1, T2, TUBE, Z
<Strain Result Output>: Normal, shear, and von Mises
<evaluation point>: Evaluation point of the element

Examples

CBAR/CBEAM Strains(BAR)
Normal S1N(A)
Normal S1N(B)
Shear S4S(A)
Shear S4S(B)
von Mises S8V(A)
von Mises S8V(B)

Where,

Normal S3N(B): Normal strain at the 3rd evaluation point of the beam element (end B)
Shear S6S(A): Shear strain at the 6th evaluation point of the beam element (end A)
von Mises S5V(B): von Mises strain at the 5th evaluation point of the beam element (end B)

Review evaluation points via: DRESP1 - Static Strain Item Codes for Bar Elements using PBARL, PBEAML Properties

The von Mises strains for all CBEAM/CBAR elements with PBARL/PBEAML properties at the same time can be output using the Result type: CBAR/CBEAM von Mises Strains.

Syntax

Where,

<Strain Result Output>: von Mises

Comments

In the TENSOR mode, pass tensor components to HyperView which then calculates derived results on-the-fly.
For frequency response loadcases, only the TENSOR mode is available.
