Problem Description This is a simple exercise that involves the simulation of the deformation of a cantilevered plate due to the application of an end load. The exercise involves 1) creation of a flat surface, 2) meshing the surface with quad plate elements, 3) creating a load and constraints, 4) specifying the material as Aluminum and the elements as plate bending and membrane elements, 5) running a linear static simulation, and 6) viewing some results. Suggested Exercise Steps Start MSC.Patran and create a new database cantilevered plate.db. Create geometry of the plate using a surface. Mesh the surface using Quad4 elements. Apply a force at free end of the plate Create a constraint at opposite end from force, fixing all six degrees of freedom. Create an aluminum material with Elastic Modulus of 10e6 and Poisson ratio of 0.3. Assign aluminum as the property of the plate with a thickness of 0.1 inch. Verify all Loads and BC’s to make sure that they are all selected. Run a linear static analysis of the model. Read results by attaching the .xdb file. Plot the results by creating a Quick Plot. Step 1. Create a Database Create a new database. File / New. Enter cantilevered_plate as the file name. Click OK. Choose Default Tolerance. Select MSC.Nastran as the Analysis Code. Select Structural as the Analysis Type. Click OK. Step 2. Create Geometry of the Plate Step 3. Meshing with Quad4 Elements Elements: Create / Mesh / Surface. Select Elem Shape: Quad. Mesher: IsoMesh. Topology: Quad4. Click on Surface List and select Surface 1. Apply. Step 4. Create a Force at Free End A force will be applied to a node at the end of the cantilever plate. Loads / BCs: Create / Force / Nodal. Select on New Set Name and enter force1. Select Input Data. Enter 0 0 –8 on Force F1 F2 F3 . OK. Click Select Application Region. Select FEM on Geometry Filter. Step 4. Create a Force at Free End (Cont.) Click on Select Nodes and select the lower righ
