Hi,
From the problem in the image, how do we express P in terms of F? Does the couple generated by the I-beam on top of simply supported beam translate as-is into the bottom section and we can draw this as just another beam with 3 point loads? I am trying to refresh my Strength of Materials...
Hi,
Between tet10 and brick, which of the above would be prefered for bolted joint analysis? Outside of a bolted joint, for other applications like crash analysis or for even a static stress analysis, which one would be better given meshing is not an issue? I understand that tet4 elements are...
Hi @MotorCity.
I realized it much later that I was posting the question in the wrong forum. Thank you for answering it though. Your answer is right. It serves as a flag to check on unusal deformations happening in the model.
Appreciate your help
Thank you, @FEA Way. That would definetly be a great way to go about it. I read your replies about the same on another thread on quasi static and it was very informative.
Unfortunately, I am restricted to static for this one due to company rules (basically anything outside of the static realm...
Hi,
I am running an inertial relief based pin joint model in ABAQUS with a pin inserted in a casting bore (the mid portion of the shank lands in the bore of the casting). Between the interaction of the pin and the bore hole, there are 2 other components fitting in as "sleeves".
The loads are...
I am trying to conduct fatigue life analysis for high cycle fatigue with stresses under yield. For that, I am trying to get stresses through NASTRAN. The model runs okay but there is a warning displayed saying 'high values of strain energy. the normal values should be zero.'
Is strain energy...
