● Problem Description
● A landing gear strut has been designed for a new fighter jet.
Determine if the landing gear strut has been designed
properly to withstand the landing load.
● E = 30 x 106 psi
●  =0.3
● Landing Load = 7,080 lb

● Suggested Exercise Steps
1. Create a new database and name it strut.db
2. Import the strut geometry strut.xmt
3. Mesh the strut to create solid elements with global
edge length = 0.5
4. Fix the cylindrical hole at the bottom of the strut
5. Apply a total load of 7080 lb in the negative Y
direction to the circular surface at the top of the strut
6. Create an isotropic material with elastic modulus =
30e6 and Poisson's ratio = 0.3
7. Create a physical property, applying your isotropic
material to the entire solid
