Forum Post: How is the "Bourdon effect" evaluated by the software when this option is enabled?

Hi all, I'm trying to understand how the Bourdon effect is incorporated in the software. So, I modelled a simple pipeline which consists of a bend with two straight runs. I analyzed the model once without enabling the "Bourdon effect" option and another time with enabling this option. I couldn't find any difference in the stresses or displacements. I was expecting to find higher stresses on the extrados of the pipe elbow however that was not the case. I attached a PDF showing the model geometry and loading, and the results from both cases.(Please visit the site to view this file) Thank you
