Shell model calculated thickness from another idealization

Shell model calculated thickness from another idealization

 

It would be nice to have possibility to define shell idealization thickness dependent from another idealizations thickness.

 

Idea is that we manually define one idealization thickness. For second we can create calculation by formula from first one (by adding x mm).

 

Finally we can predefined difference between two idealizations and we know that second idealization is calculated every time after change of first thickness.

 

I our case it could be very useful for cylindrical shells and shell stiffeners. Generally we now that stiffener height 30 mm is good from technological reasons.

 

To get optimized design I could change only main shell thickness and stiffener thickness always is calculated correctly.

 

Taking account that complex design optimization needs many trials this feature would be nice.
