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
