Week 1 Stress Concentration on a Plate with hole
Stress Concentration on a Plate with hole
AIM:
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
PROCESS:
- As this is a static we select static structural & open geometry
- click on space claim to start drawing

- Use the available options and draw it
- We draw the geometry as per given dimensions and provide the thickness

- After completing the design go to workbence and click edit on Model

- Apply the force and fix as given using insert


- Check for the mesh

- We click for the model and apply the force , constrains & solutions that are required
- The results are displaed below



Case 2:
smaller holes 90mm away from the center:
Diameter=30mm
Boundary Conditions:
Plate fixed at left face.
Load of 500N on the right face.
PROCESS:
- As this is a static we select static structural & open geometry
- click on space claim to start drawing

- Use the available options and draw it
- We draw the geometry as per given dimensions and provide the thickness

- We click for the model and apply the force , constrains & solutions that are required
