Governing principle law :
Developing a Model for Finite Element Analysis
Overall steps in FEA software
Von Mises stress in ¼ model of thin plate under tension using 1st order elements
A disaster waiting to happen using first order elements
Approximation of stress function in a model
A mesh of solid tetrahedral (4 nodes) h-elements
A mesh of tetrahedral p-elements produced by MECHANICA
Two common convergence measures using p-elements
L-shaped cantilever created in Pro/E.
Constraints and loads are applied.
Material properties can be accessed and edited.
Von Mises Stress Distribution
48.95 MPa
Deformation of bar at a scale of 42.8.
Convergence plots for Von Mises Stress and strain enery.
