Jose Calaf-Chica

Hello Majid,

In the results environment in CAE, click on Tools-Coordinate System-Create. For coordinate system type, select the cylindrical ones. If you select the creation mode "System following three nodes", you have to select a first node which will represent the center of your coordinate system. The second selected node will be the radial direction and the third node will define the plane R-Theta.

Then, you have to click Results-Options. Go to the label Transformation, select "User specified" and select your previous created cylindrical coordinate system.

After that, S11 will be the radial stress, S22 the S22 the tangential stress and S33 the longitudinal stress.

Hi Jose,

Many thanks for your answer, but my question is about the predefined filed condition. Actually, my model is subjected to the initial hoop stress and every node must be loaded in hoop direction.
