Subject: Fourier loads

Hi all ,
We use PLANE-25 elements to model the pressure vessels and input all the 3
forces and 3 moments using the fourier coefficients. Each such load is input as
a load case and then we find the stresses due to combined loading. The stresses
vary along the circumference ( based on angle "teta"). As on now we check the
stresses varying "teta" , find the maximum stress location and do stress
evaluation. This is a very tedious process.
Can any body help me how do we find the "teta" value pertaining to the maximum
combined stress ?
Thanks in advance
