Residual stress simulation in laminated plates using ANSYS

Dear all,

I am trying to simulate residual stresses in laminated plates. I have been
able to simulate the stress for single plate by applying a thermal
coefficient and then changing the temperature. For doing the same thing in
multiple plates I used the thin shell element for composite plates and
applied different thermal coefficients to different laminae. Though the
results shows some deformations but it doesnt show a smooth profile of
deflection, which is expected.

Any suggestion is welcome.

Thanks
Ashish
