Helpful Hints and Tips: Stress Transformation Formulae for Results Processing
Stress transformation formulae, in terms of the normal (Sx, Sy, Sz) & shear (Txy, Tyz, Txz) stresses, may be either input manually in the Formulae window OR imported as a .PAR file for advanced results processing. The following stress transformation formulae are included in the below download as an importable .PAR file and companion SCW:
- Stress Invariants
- 1st Principal Stress (2D/3D)
- 2nd Principal Stress (2D/3D)
- 3rd Principal Stress (3D)
- von Mises Stress (2D/3D)
- Max Shear Stress (2D/3D)
Note: the error messages may be ignored during .par importation.
