Example Problem 2 - Thermal Residual Stresses & Temperature Dependent Material Properties

This example problem demonstrates the use of temperature-dependent material properties and the thermal residual stress feature in Helius PFA.

In the first section of this document, a temperature dependent Helius PFA material file is created. The subsequent sections describe the creation and analysis of four models that show different methods for modeling temperature change. Finally, results from these models are compared and discussed.
