Hello everyone,
I have started a new project in patran consisting in studying the behaviour of a plate drilled in the middle, but this work is led on a quater of the plate in order to reduce the time of calculation and so on.
The plate is constraint in one direction on its left side and loaded...
Ok, i give you the dimensions of the solid i m stuying (rectangular section, width=20 mm, height=40 mm and length=100 mm). I'm a beginner in Patran so considering the profile of the part I have chosen to work with an hexahedral mesh (solid mesh i suppose). What is a shell mesh ?, what is the...
Ok,
interesting, then it means that i need anyway to fix completely one side, but i don't get the point when you say that i can use the symmetry of my model.
what are you refering to ?
thanks for your answer
Hello everyone,
In these last days I try to study the stress in a simple tensile test, the main goal of the exercise is to display at the end an homogeneous stress along the part. To do so, I have begun to completly constraint one side of the part (Tx=Ty=Tz=0) but the results don't suit me as...
