Hello, I wonder if there is a means to do stress linearisation during post processing along any arbitrary path intersecting the structure? The existing stress linearisation node allows selection of only predefined edges. Abhishek

Hi Abishek,

Stress linearization requires a geometrical line. If it is problematic to insert a new line, for example because you have a large complex geometry or that the solution takes a long time, then a good idea is to use one or more submodels for the stress linearization evaluations.

How to set up submodels is shown in for example: https://www.comsol.com/model/submodeling-analysis-of-a-shaft-20359 https://www.comsol.com/model/submodel-in-a-wheel-rim-8517

Regards,
Henrik

Dear Henrik,

Thank you for the reply. I am quiete surprised that COMSOL being such a user friendly software doesn't provide this crucial tool (as far as pressure vessel design is concerned), while softwares like ABAQUS and ANSYS provide such a functionality since a long time.

Is there any add-in which can do the stress linearisation after the stresses have been extracted using cut line 3D option?

Regards Abhishek
