I want to ask about the compressive strength results of concrete cube using APDL Ansys: my question is: The total compressive test is it the von mises stress or the component stress in y - direction.
other question what does the minuses (-) value stress means.
David Alegre Gimeno
If the pressure applied to the cube is along the Y-direction, you can check the stress component 'SY'.
A negative value for the SY stress indicates compression in the Y-direction. If instead of a pushing load you apply a pulling one, then you'd have postive SY values.
