B5(30 pts, Text 6.17, modified): For the configuration shown in Figure below, assume plane stress approximation and determine the deflection at the point of load application. Assume one point load of 240 N acting vertically. t=1.2mm,E=60GPA,v=0.3
Solve the problem longhand for one element (Mathcad or Matlab is OK). Use the "plane stress CST element" handout.
Perform MARC simulation with one element. Include one graph with boundary conditions and one graph containing the deformed&original shape and the y-component of displacement.
Refine your MARC mesh by using Subdivide and Sweep commands (choose parameters 661 for divisions). Again, produce (and submit) the deformed shape and y-displacements. Comment on results.
