Finite element modeling in many ways is more like an art than a science since the quality of the results is dependent upon the quality of your model. One of the more common errors that a beginning finite element analyst makes in modeling is to simply simulate the geometry rather than to simulate both the …
When you think of a symmetrical structure, you most likely think of a structure that has one or more planes of reflective symmetry. Although there are other kinds of symmetry available in MSC Nastran, reflective symmetry is the only type that is discussed in this section. MSC Nastran also provides a series of special solution …
In finite element analysis, the loads are often applied to the elements rather than to the grid points. Examples of such loadings include the edge load on a CQUAD4 element or a pressure load on one of the faces of a solid element. When you convert these element loads to grid point loads, a common …
When you are working with a structure that is modeled with either plate or solid elements, it is quite common that you may want to look at either the printed output or contour plots of the element component stresses. If this is the case, extra care must be taken on your part to ensure that …
