Ansys output


Output to Ansys creates two files:

- file with *.dat extension containing geometrical and topological data of the deformed grid (sheet or preform/parison). The file is directly readable by Ansys.

- file with name istress.ist containing residual stress tensor for each element. This file can be imported into Ansys as an initial external loading.
