Week 1 Stress Concentration on a Plate with hole

Case :1

Design a plate with a hole model similar to what we worked in the class, but with increased thickness.
Determine the maximum deformation and stress developed in the model.

Plate dimensions:

Length=300mm
Height=120mm
Thickness=30mm
Circular Hole at the center:
Diameter=60mm

1) Equivalent Stress : 0.98875 Mpa

Total Deformation :- 0.00044026 Mpa

Case 2:

Plate With Multiple holes

Equivalent Stress :-

Total Deformation :-

Through an analysis standpoint i would like to select multiple hole because the force which we put on object devide by multiple holes.

Through an manufacturing standpoint i would like to select single hole because sheet metal design guidelines to ensure the quality and manufacturability sheet metal enclosure . we can deliver the product low cost and faster timeline.
