Development of stress linearization function

Stress linearization is one of the essential functions of structural cae software post-processing, and it is often used in pressure vessel analysis.

Suggest that prepomax support this feature;

For the specific steps, please refer to ANSYS:

Step 1: Define the path to be linearized, specifically, select 2 nodes and define a path

Step 2: Insert stress linearization: select the path and select the stress variable for linearization

Step 3: Output relevant data

What is Stress Linearization?

Yes, it was requested a few times.

Stress Linearization

Dear All, It’s possible to create path and linearize the stress along the path in order to extract Membrane and Bending contribution as requested by ASME VIII Div.2 Part 5 or EN13445-3 Direct Route (Annex B)? Thanks Michele

Temperature dependent thermal conductivity + Stress Linearization

Hi guys, Foremost, thank you so much for this software. It has a clear, straight forward GUI, works nice with SALOME, and in each version gets more and more sophisticated. I have two questions: I do a lot of study with temperature dependent material values in pressure vessel engineering. When I define a material in PPM, there is option for “temperature dependent data points” for thermal expansion but not for thermal conductivity. Is this missing because of some limitation of Calculix, or it…

For now, it can be done in FreeCAD FEM.
