Time history graphs: superelement internal element results (Simcenter Samcef)

In a Simcenter Samcef nonlinear analysis, you can use Samcef Superelement Internal Element Output Request modeling objects to output the following time history result graphs on super elements:

Categories

Stress

Sub Category Simcenter Samcef codes
Stress Tensor Shells: 9431, 9435, 9436Other elements: 9411
Normal Stress on beam sections 9440
Shear Stress on beam sections 9450
Von Mises Equivalent Stress Shells: 9331, 9332Other elements: 9310

Miscellaneous

Result Simcenter Samcef codes
Relative Displacements 9530

Efforts/Moments

Result Simcenter Samcef codes
Efforts 9524
Moments 9525

Categories and sub-categories

Use the Category list and the Sub Category list to select the result you want to define.

Degrees of freedom

You can define the components of the result to be output. For instance, you can request only the first component of a stress tensor. The components refer to the element's material axes.

Location

For shell results, you can use the Location list to choose between the Midplane, the Lower Skin, the Upper Skin, or All the shell positions:

Lower Skin

Only select the lower skin version of the result.

Upper Skin

Only select the upper skin version of the result.

Midplane

Only select the midplane version of the result.

All

Select all the positions in the shell.

For other elements, from the Location list, select Other elements.

Elements Selection

In the Select Elements group, select the elements to which you want to attach the result.
