Thank you, Reno.
I have another question regarding the modeling of the sandwich panel (Foam in between the UD carbon fiber layer). I tried to model it using selection rule. When I try to vary the element thickness by adding the extra layer on the root section, ANSYS adds that section to the previously modeled throughout section. At the root part, my section shows (carbon fiber layer+core+carbon fiber layer+ carbon fiber layer+core+carbon fiber layer). That is, my model has two independent sandwich elements on the root. How can I correct this to my element so that the core will be added to the core part and outer skin to the outer skin part so my model has one (carbon fiber layer+core+carbon fiber layer) with variable thickness?
