Nastran solver properties - Laminate
Nastran internally converts the PCOMP and PCOMPG cards, along with the
associated material cards, to an equivalent PSHELL card with up to 4 anisotropic
MAT2 material cards.
Each MAT2 card represents a different behavior, depending on the PSHELL MID
that references it:
• MID1: Membrane
• MID2: Bending
• MID3: Transverse Shear
• MID4: Membrane-bending Coupling

All the plies are specified on the PCOMP or PCOMPG cards.
MEM Only membrane terms are retained. Intended for SOL 200.
BEND Only bending terms are retained. Intended for SOL 200.
SMEAR Stacking sequence is ignored, shear and bending-membrane coupling terms
are set to 0. Intended for SOL 200.
SMCORE with

Stacking sequence is ignored, shear and bending-membrane coupling terms
are set to 0. Intended for SOL 200.
SMCORE + transverse
shear with Symmetric
with Core
For a sandwich, provides a PSHELL equivalent that includes membrane,
bending and transverse shear stiffness for which the extreme fiber stresses
(top of top ply and bottom of bottom ply) will be accurate. For all solutions.

SMCORE + Transverse Shear
PSHELL representation of symmetric sandwich that allows for accurate recovery
of maximum and minimum isotropic facesheet stresses
Includes the following stiffness components:
• Membrane
• Bending (smeared facesheet representation)
• Transverse Shear
The simple PSHELL representation will not provide accurate stresses

Homogeneous Properties for 3D Laminates
Selectively replace PCOMPS by PSOLID
At the laminate/layup level
At the individual ply level
Benefit: faster solution time, fewer results
Equivalent 3D orthotropic material properties
are computed on-the-fly
Valid for symmetric and balanced layups
The further away the layup is from this
condition, the poorer the homogeneous
representation will be.
Works for NX Nastran, ANSYS and ABAQUS

NX Post without transformation of the solver result.

Results Coordinate Systems in NX Post
• By default, shell stress resultants are displayed in the native (element)
coordinate system.
• DMAP can be used to force storage in the material system
• Ply stress and ply strain results are displayed in the native (ply)
coordinate system.
• Interlaminar ply stress and strain results are displayed in the:
• Native (material) coordinate system for 2D elements.
• Hence the core ribbon direction should be the material direction!
• Native (ply) coordinate system for 3D elements.

NXLC Advanced post reporting of laminate results Use the Advanced Post Report command to quickly identify critical element and ply data over many solutions. The enveloping, filtering, and sorting tools help you to find the critical element and ply data that you want without reviewing all the solver ply data. The command reads results from Nastran, ANSYS, or Abaqus, and computes: • Ply stresses and strains (2D)
• Ply and bond failure indices
• Ply and bond margins of safety
• Ply and bond strength ratios

Advanced post processing of laminate results
Spreadsheet and graphical post reports use the laminate properties in your active FEM. • This allows you to switch failure theories or even modify your laminates after the solution was solved to perform what-if analyses without re-solving.
• It also allows you to validate your laminates using failure theories that are not
supported by the solver, including user-defined failure theories
• Post report currently computes elemental results only. NX automatically updates draping and zones if required, prior to accessing results. The quick post report queries the results without accessing the FEM.

Laminate spreadsheet report The laminate spreadsheet report contains reports on the following laminate results: •
•
•
The shell stress resultants.
The specific components of ply stress and strain results.
The failure indices, strength ratios, and margins of safety.
You can output filtered and sorted ply results in laminate spreadsheet reports.

Laminate spreadsheet summary tables The spreadsheet that is generated by the spreadsheet report or the quick report contains:
•
•
A top summary table that lists the worst ply values for all the result sets and structural data input selection.
A summary table for each result set and for each structural data input selection.
For each of the requested results, the summary tables display:
•
•
•
The location where the critical value occurs.
The critical value in blue.
The value of the other quantities at the same location.

Answers to review questions
1. True/False. NX Laminate Composites can post process the results from Nastran, Abaqus, ANSYS, and LS-DYNA.
• False. You can only write out the LS-DYNA solver input file. NX does not support LS-DYNA solver and cannot post process LS-DYNA results.
2. True/False. Spreadsheet and graphical post reports query the active FEM.
• True. Spreadsheet and graphical post reports use the laminate properties in your active FEM, so that you can switch failure theories and even modify your laminates after the solution was solved to perform what-if analyses. The laminate quick report exports the results summaries to an Excel spreadsheet or a CSV file without querying the active FEM.
3. True/False. Spreadsheet and graphical post reports can filter and sort results.
• False. You can sort and filter the laminate results only with the spreadsheet report.
