How can I *GET the maximum equivalent stress (von Mises) of a BEAM188 or BEAM189 structure?


You can list the detailed section stresses with the PRSSOL,S,COMP command and issue PRSSOL,S,PRIN
to list the principal stresses along with the stress intensity and equivalent stress. There is a
*GET,par,SECR,enum (or ALL),S,X (or XZ or XY),MAX (or MIN) to retrieve the maximum or minimum
component total stress. To retrieve the maximum equivalent stress, you need to plot it by issuing:

! for a batch run be sure to issued /sho,file prior to the below
/GRAPH,POWER
/ESHAPE,1
PLNSOL,S,EQV

then issue the below command to retrieve the value to a parameter.

*GET,par,PLNSOL, ,MAX
