Tony Abbey's Static Analysis Section
Q: I have a bridge structure, which is only loaded
vertically,
why do I have to constrain it
horizontally in the span and
transverse directions?
Q: I have applied a force to my FE model of a
sailing boat deck
to represent a cleat pull out
load. The stresses I see are far
bigger than the
deck material can take. From my experience
with
manufacturing these boats it cannot be that bad?
Q: I
set up a simple cantilever beam model and
checked the
deflection
in Roark for straight beams.
It is different.
