Well, I have a doubt about doing this calc, my support is fixed at the bottom side and not at the left one... Peterson determines the reference stress by our classic stress formula, Stress= My/I, and I still thinking that this model couldn't be used as mine, because at my view, when you have 2...
Where did you find this example? I would like to see it. I live in brazil, hehe, so it's difficult for moving abroad =P
Can't you save it in a pdf file and send me?
Thank you a lot man !
Im sorry for my lack of knowledge about this subject...
Would you advice me about some good theory or something that can me teach this things better?
Why the square elements are better than the retangular? When we use the others one?
I was looking at the book you said, and at page 160 (3rd...
I have the GT STRUDL in my job without limitations, but I cannot understand very well the manuals... Don't you have any tutorial for me? Or Can you explain me what means every line of what you said?
Thank you a lot for your help.
How can I do this Kt calc in this situation? Why I need square elements? I have almost no experience in FEM, smaller aspect ratio means smaller elements?
Thank you a lot for your attention with me!
Hello rb1957, thanks for yours answers... I did what you tell me, I refined the mesh on the fillet but the stresses increased a lot. It got 30! And the units are kgf/mm².
The elements:
Your file's link is...
Ok, I will try the nonlinear analysis, but I would like to know if there isn't other ways to solve this kind of situation...
Maybe some considerations or things like that, because the nonlinear analysis is difficult for doing and more complicated... And I think this little structure is so simple...
Hello...
I would like to do a nonlinear analysis in GT STRUDL...
Can anyone help me in it? If you have tutorial or things like that, I would love it =]
Thanks.
Just for fix some errors that I did...
"That's the biGgest force that it can hold.".
The problem is that no one gives me an answer that explain why theses results only INCREASE.
Thank you for yours answer rb1957...
I am looking at nodal stress,
I realize that the more refined is the mesh, the bigger is the stress,
I am not wanting to get the exact peak, I want to take a safe result that I can say to my boss "That's the bigest force that it can hold.".
The problem is...
That's the thing I have more doubts... How many elements to put? And what is the size of the radius? What are the criterion for choosing it? How can I know it?
Because, the more I refine the mesh, the more the stresses increases.
Hello,
I am doing a analysis of a tubing support, a guide, that works like a hold-down too.
In this analysis I put the vertical positive force on the right face of the guide and like I expected it produced a stress concentration.
The stress concentration isn't my problem, my problem is when I...
