Fiber length weighted distribution result
The Fiber length weighted distribution result shows the distribution of fibers, weighted according to their length.
This result is generated at specified nodes from an analysis that includes Fill or Fill+Pack analysis, and is supported for the following mesh types:
Midplane
Dual Domain
3D
The Fiber length weighted distribution result is generated when
- the option to perform Fiber orientation analysis if fiber material is enabled
- the selected molding material is a long-fiber composite material
- the option to Calculate fiber breakage is set to Determined by length.
Using this result
For Dual Domain and Midplane models, the averaged distribution of fiber length through the thickness is shown. This is a time series result and so the fiber length changes can be shown through out time.
For 3D models, it is the distribution of fiber length at each node. This result can specify a node to have this result plotted against. This plot is only shown at the last time step.
