When a layer has darts and the cut ends of the material are brought close together, the layer is not
continuous across those parts. Therefore, ensure that a sufficient number of ANSYS elements are defined
in those areas so that at least one element across the transition does not include that layer.
For large models, the search process can be time-consuming; therefore, for iterative analyses during
the solution phase, ANSYS saves the layer information in the element saved-data file (.ESAV). ANSYS
does not save the layer information during preprocessing and postprocessing, however, so operations
such as LAYPLOT and PRESOL,S,X may require more time to execute than expected.
The CDWRITE command cannot archive FiberSIM data. Instead, retain the FiberSIM .xml file and reenter
the section (SECxxxxx) commands necessary to generat e the complete model.
