Alter to calculate the composite ply-by-ply stresses (or strains) and 
failure indices in a transient dynamic solution.


Alter Name    trncompa.alt


Purpose

To calculate the composite ply-by-ply stresses (or strains) and failure 
indices in a transient dynamic solution.

Solution Sequence

SOL 109,112.


Input

Executive Control

Include 'trncompa.alt'
 


Case Control


Stresses=n
 

Bulk Data

A value of "YES" must be defined for the appropriate SOUTi field
on the pcomp entry.



Output

Standard transient output plus the ply-by-ply stresses
(or strains) and failure indices.


Limitations

The timesteps are not printed.  For the ply-by-ply stresses (or strains),
they are labeled as dummy eigenvalues rather than timesteps.  For the
failure indices, no labels will appear; the output is in sequential
order.

Sample Files

trncomp1.dat     A modal transient run requesting ply-by-ply stresses
                 and failure indices of a selected element.
