Axisymmetric-Harmonic Structural Shell
SHELL61 has four degrees of freedom at each node: translations in the nodal x, y, and z directions and a rotation about the nodal z-axis. The loading may be axisymmetric or nonaxisymmetric. Various loading cases are described in Harmonic Axisymmetric Elements with Nonaxisymmetric Loads.
Extreme orientations of the conical shell element result in a cylindrical shell element or an annular disc element. The shell element may have a linearly varying thickness. See SHELL61 in the Mechanical APDL Theory Reference for more details about this element.
The geometry, node locations, and the coordinate system for this element are shown in Figure 61.1: SHELL61 Geometry. The element is defined by two nodes, two end thicknesses, the number of
harmonic waves (MODE
on the MODE command), a
symmetry condition (ISYM
on the MODE command), and
the orthotropic material properties. The element coordinate system is shown in Figure 61.2: SHELL61 Stress Output. θ is in the tangential (hoop) direction. The
MODE
or ISYM
parameters are discussed in
detail in Harmonic Axisymmetric Elements with Nonaxisymmetric Loads.
The material may be orthotropic, with nine elastic constants required for its description. The element loading may be input as any combination of harmonically varying temperatures and pressures. Harmonically varying nodal forces, if any, should be input on a full 360° basis.
The element may have variable thickness. The thickness is assumed to vary linearly between the nodes. If the element has a constant thickness, only TK(I) is required. Real constant ADMSUA is used to define an added mass per unit area.
Element loads are described in Nodal Loading. Harmonically varying pressures may be input as surface loads on the element faces as shown by the circled numbers on Figure 61.1: SHELL61 Geometry. Positive pressures act into the element. The pressures are applied at the surface of the element rather than at the centroidal plane so that some thickness effects can be considered. These include the increase or decrease in size of surface area the load is acting on and (in the case of a nonzero Poisson's ratio) an interaction effect causing the element to grow longer or shorter under equal pressures on both surfaces. Material properties EY, PRXY, and PRYZ (or EY, NUXY, and NUYZ) are required for this effect.
Harmonically varying temperatures may be input as element body loads at the four corner locations shown in Figure 61.1: SHELL61 Geometry. The first corner temperature T1 defaults to TUNIF. If all other temperatures are unspecified, they default to T1. If only T1 and T2 are input, T3 defaults to T2 and T4 defaults to T1. For any other input pattern, unspecified temperatures default to TUNIF.
KEYOPT(1) is used for temperature loading with MODE
greater than
zero and temperature-dependent material properties. Material properties may only be evaluated at
a constant (nonharmonically varying) temperature. If MODE
equals zero,
the material properties are always evaluated at the average element temperature. KEYOPT(3) is
used to include or suppress the extra displacement shapes.
A summary of the element input is given in "SHELL61 Input Summary". A general description of element input is given in Element Input.

If MODE is greater than zero, use temperatures for:
Use temperatures only for thermal bending (evaluate material properties at TREF)
Use temperatures only for material property evaluation (thermal strains are not computed)
Extra displacement shapes:
Include extra displacement shapes
Suppress extra displacement shapes
Member force and moment output:
No printout of member forces and moments
Print out member forces and moments in the element coordinate system
Location of element solution output:
Output solution at mid-length only
Output solution at N equally spaced interior points and at end points (where N = 1, 3, 5, 7 or 9)
The solution output associated with the element is in two forms:
Nodal displacements included in the overall nodal solution
Additional element output as shown in Table 61.1: SHELL61 Element Output Definitions
Several items are illustrated in Figure 61.2: SHELL61 Stress Output. The printout may be displayed at the centroid, at the end points and at N equally spaced interior points, where N is the KEYOPT(6) value. For example, if N = 3, printout will be produced at end I, 1/4 length, mid-length (centroid), 3/4 length, and at end J. Printout location number 1 is always at end I. Stress components which are inherently zero are printed for clarity.
In the displacement printout, the UZ components are out-of-phase with the UX and UY
components. For example, in the MODE
= 1,
ISYM
= 1 loading case, UX and UY are the peak values at θ =
0° and UZ is the peak value at θ = 90°. We recommend that you always use the
angle field on the SET command when
postprocessing the results. For more information about harmonic elements, see Harmonic Axisymmetric Elements with Nonaxisymmetric Loads
A general description of solution output is given in Solution Output. See the Basic Analysis Guide for ways to view results.
The Element Output Definitions table uses the following notation:
A colon (:) in the Name column indicates that the item can be accessed by the Component Name method (ETABLE, ESOL). The O column indicates the availability of the items in the file Jobname.OUT. The R column indicates the availability of the items in the results file.
In either the O or R columns, “Y” indicates that the item is always available, a number refers to a table footnote that describes when the item is conditionally available, and “-” indicates that the item is not available.

The axisymmetric shell element must be defined in the global X-Y plane and must not have a zero length. Both ends must have nonnegative X coordinate values and the element must not lie along the global Y-axis.
If the element has a constant thickness, only TK(I) need be defined. TK(I) must not be zero.
The element thickness is assumed to vary linearly from node I to node J.
The element assumes a linear elastic material.
Post analysis superposition of results is valid only with other linear elastic solutions.
Strain energy does not consider thermal effects.
The element should not be used with the large deflection option.
The element may not be deactivated with the EKILL command.
You can use only axisymmetric (MODE,0) loads without significant torsional stresses to generate the stress state used for stress stiffened modal analyses using this element.
