Hi louise

When we need compression plate? in uniaxial load simulation (x direction) do we need to assign compression plates in Z direction?

Hi Maryam,

You need to assign compression plates if you want to constrain the deformation in the z direction.

Best regards,

Dear Louise

As you are expert in this field, should I assign it for a uniaxial load modelling?

[louisepb]

Hi Mariam,

No. The compression plates would simulate the textile being compressed between two plates which isn't what you want.

Best regards,
Louise
