Simcenter 3D Multiphysics solver properties

Property Supported analysis type Details
Nonstructural Mass per unit area StructuralCoupled This 2D laminate property is not exported to the solvers.
Damping coefficient StructuralCoupled This 2D laminate property is not exported to the solvers.
Stress or Strain Output Request StructuralCoupled If selected, the software exports SOUT as YES on the PCOMPS card, for all the plies in the laminate and you can display ply results in the Post Processing Navigator. SOUT applies to both ***.f06** and ***.op2** output files.
Laminate Options StructuralCoupled This 2D laminate property is not exported to the solvers.
Output Format StructuralCoupledThermal You can export the 3D laminate as Layered or Homogeneous.The 2D laminate property is not exported to the solvers.
Thermo-Optical Properties CoupledThermal The software exports the specified thermo-optical properties to the thermal solver for 3D laminates.
