Hello,
I need to analyse a plate with two holes in tension (pressure q0 on both sides, left and right). The holes are positioned so there is not symmetry in the plate.
As this cannot be directly imposed on ANSYS because it introduces free body motion need to specify other boundary conditions.
I tried to impose UX and UY = 0 at the left plate boundary and in order to confirm if this was correct I analysed the plate with central hole case using the symmetry BC's and using the whole model (I used the data from this tutorial:
Could someone tell me if this is correct or if I should apply a different boundary condition?
Thanks
