I am trying to calculate average stress and strain of elements. I am currently able to get an arithmetic average stress of all the elements. But I need to get volumetric average stress, as for non-uniform element size arithmetic average stress can be misleading. Thanks
Dear Shahrior,
You can store the elemental stress and elemental volume in .rpt file. Take it to excel and find the volume weighted stress.
Alternately, you can also write a python script to calculate volumetric average stress. You can refer a section on numerical homogenization in chapter 6 of book by EJ Barbero.

Not into the math but researched the key word and this might be interesting...

But how you define stress? A navy seal will feel stress while home with his people .A scholarly sedate contaplating person will feel stress in the middle of a political gathering. Do you ascertain first their particular temperament?
