Hi,
I have a model consist of two parts in Patran. When I did a static analysis, I found error 9050. Then I did a modal analysis for trouble shooting. I found two parts seperate in the fringe plot. Does this mean the two parts are actually not connected to each other. Is this the reason for my...
Hi Inline6,
Thank you for your reply. I compared my FEA and hand calculation and found the force applied to a geometry is actually applied to each node on the geomeotry. Pressure is the right way to applied the load for my case.
Hi Nlgyo,
Thank you very much for the reply. I think maybe I did not make my question clear. I am more interested in applying a concentrated force to a surface. When I apply a concentrated force (100N) to a surface, it means the load is ultimately applied to each node with a value of 100 N? The...
Hi All
I am new to Patran and try to know more details about Patran. My question is that if I applied a nodal force (lets say 100N) and a curve geometry is selected as the application area. Does that mean the force (100N) ia applied to each node in the curve or the force is distributed on all...
