I attempted modeling a filament wound pipe in 3D in Abaqus, but I couldn’t achieve the proper stacking direction, which is along the pipe thickness and the hoop or Theta direction. Any suggestions on how to go about it?

Hello,

First, you need to partition your model. It depends on your composite. Then, create a coordinate system for each partition in which they can move and rotate with the partition. In this way, you can set your direction correctly. Refer to this link:

You can solve your current problem with it and your future problems as well. You won’t regret it.

Best regards.
