Sectional Force

Question

Hello,

How can I extract sectional force in patran? Suppose I have 3 rows of hex elements, if I apply tensile load on the top row, I want to review the sectional load (in the middle row).

Hi Shaheer,

Requesting GPFORCE output and freebody tool ( Create...Freebody...Interface) option will allow you to do this. Please review https://simcompanion.mscsoftware.com/infocenter/index?page=content&id=WM16&actp=search&searchid=1309870772539
