Hi all,
I have a query regarding interpretation of the results of plate analysis.
When i am using results along line command for quadrilateral plate elements near supports the shear stress value (QLY) is nearer to the total shear force at the section.
But when we are using triangular elements near the supports the shear value is not at all matching with the total reactions.
Can you just explain about the command " Results along line" and its usage?
Will it gives the total shear force and total moment at the section along the line whatever may be the orientation of plate elements.
Regards,
Virat
