Layer-by-Layer Simulation Implementation in CalculiX

1

Hello,
Is it possible to perform a layer by layer simulation in CalculiX and if so, what is the methodology for implementing such a simulation?

Thanks & Regards,

CalculiX has composite shell sections. Check the *SHELL SECTION keyword in the documentation but the basic syntax looks like this:

*SHELL SECTION, COMPOSITE, ELSET=..., ORIENTATION=...
thickness_1, , material_1, orientation_1
thickness_2, , material_2, orientation_2
