Q. How do you perform a 2-D Analysis in DM/DS?

A. This is a beta feature in 8.1. Below are the basic steps that you must take.

1. Turn on beta features in 8.1 DS
2. In Project page, under Advanced Geometry Defaults set Analysis Type to "2D"
3. In DM, build surfaces from sketches (Main Menu=> Concepts...) Use freeze option if you want to keep multiple surfaces partitioned from each other.
4. Enter DS and each surface should be ready to mesh with plane 2D elements for a "Plane Stress" Analysis.
Refer to Details window for each surface created.
