Communication masts usually have a framework with a bolted triangular lattice design. The diagonals of the framework are assembled from several parts and welded together. When operating under a given wind load at a specific location,...
The stresses in a pulley connected to an engine that drives another pulley are studied in this model. A parametric analysis is conducted in order to study how the rotational speed affects the stress distribution in the pulley. The...
This example shows a 2D plane stress model of a membrane with a thickness of 0.1 m. The load is a gravity load that acts in the negative y direction. The left end boundary is kept fixed. The resulting shear stress is compared to a...
This example shows a 2D plane stress model of a membrane with a thickness of 0.1 m. The load is a uniformly distributed horizontal load of 10 MN/m (that is, a pressure of 100 MPa) along the right end. At the left end, the membrane is...
This tutorial example is very educational in explaining the PDE interface. It couples heat and mass balances to reaction kinetics. It is also a good example of scaling equations so as to create nice modeling geometries of systems with...
This example illustrates a multiphysics application that involves a fluid-structure interaction. It simulates a filled milk container on a conveyor belt, which starts moving. The methodology presented here defines two problems, one...
This tutorial shows how to perform virtual geometry operations on an imported CAD geometry. These virtual operations, such as form composite entities or ignore entities can help to improve the mesh and reduce the total element number.
