                         Before going to the next step, enter preprocessor by selecting
                     Preprocessor from the ANSYS Main Menu.









































                  2.  Define element types and options
                     In any analysis, you need to select from a library of element types
                     and define the appropriate ones for your analysis. For this analysis,
                     you will first use element type, SHELL99. SHELL99 may be used
                     for layered applications of a structural shell model. It allows up to
