Lab 01 - Box
Lab 02 – Rectangular Cross Section
Step 01:
Add Materials from Engineering Data Tab
1) Concrete
2) Titanium
3) Structural Stell
Step 02:
Open Design Modeller, From Concept Tab -> Insert I – Beam of dimensions 25X25X30 and
1X1X2.5
Step 03:
Open Mechanical and Generate Mesh of the I – Beam. (element size = 0.0010m)
Step 04:
Apply Constraints and Force:
1) Fixed Supports on 2 I – Faces
2) 1000N Force on the Upper Face
Step 05:
Solve to obtain results
Results
Concrete
Structural Steel
Titanium
Lab 04 – T Beam with Convergence
Objective: To perform analysis on a T – Beam with convergence.
Step 2: Geometry
Create a T section and extrude, fillet the longer edges by 0.005m
Step 3: Mesh
Generate Mesh
Objective: To perform static structural analysis on a T Beam with and without sharp edges
Step 1:
Add Material form Engineering Data Tab
Step 2:
Make a T Beam with Appropriate dimensions in Design Modeler
Step 3:
Apply boundary conditions, fix the 2 T cross sections and apply different magnitudes of force
on the bottom face
Step 4:
Generate Mesh of the T beam
Step 5:
Solve to get the results and obtain maximum stress on different magnitudes of applied
forces
Step 6:
In the Design Modeler add fixed radius on sharp edges of 0.0035m
Step 7:
Repeat Steps 3 – 5 to obtain maximum stresses for different magnitudes of applied forces
Step 8:
Compare the maximum stresses
