Place SURF153 elements in 2d case or SURF154 in 3D over the surface of the elements where you want to apply shear loads to. These elements allow applying all components of surface loads.

Piyush Uniyal

thank you sir for your attention and guidance.

sir i want to simulate pure shear problem in ansys. sir could you elaborate procedure. how to define elements?

Ok, Piyush

Please, see the APDL script attached. It contains the model in plane strain formulation.

thanx alot sir...

Aaron Rivas-Menchi

apply this boundary conditions :)

Can we create Surf153 elements on top of Shell181 2D elements? I get error as "no surface elements generated". thank you. Alexey Kuzin
