5.6.6. Further Options

Further options for Algorithm=ConsiderOndulation option are:

SourcePID = TargetMID

TargetPlyID

Flag for assigning source part ID as target material ID or target ply ID. Shell_Option=COMPOSITE (Long) must be declared.

Further options for the mapping of fiber orientations from *MAT 249 (*MAT_REINFORCED_THERMOPLASTIC) [20] are:

TargetMaterialModel = 249

Target mesh material model number. If the option is defined, the fiber directions is stored according to IHIS=1 option. Shell_Option=COMPOSITE must be defined to utilize this option in full capacity. More information about the material model can be found in [20]. See Remarks.

ThroughThicknessAveraging = YES

NO

Set to YES if orientation averaging is performed through the thickness of the source parts, or if a specific stacking sequence is needed to define the fiber orientation. Use this option where orientations are being transformed and appears in a specific order other than arbitrary orientations through the thickness. If YES, the remaining inputs in this table must be defined.
NumberOfFiberBundles = INTDefine how many averaging options are performed.
FiberBundle#i:Counter for fiber bundles.
Lay = INT, IP = INT, Fib = INT Repeat this card as often as necessary for each of the averaging possibilities. Lay refers to the Layer (same numbering as in SourcePid#i) of stacked elements in the source mesh. IP refers to the respective IP in that layer, and Fib to the respective fiber. All values listed here are averaged until the next different input parameter is defined.
