Shell + plasticity

Hi everybody. I downloaded mecway (9.0 64 bit) and tried one tutorial. It seems to me that plasticity in shell elements is not allowed. Moreover it seems that this is a feature supported by calculix. Are there any plans to add plasticity on shells?

  • Yes, it can do that. You need to make these settings for plastic material options to be enabled:
    Analysis type: Nonlinear Static 3D or Nonlinear Dynamic Response 3D
    Solver: CCX
