Problem 3 A bar reinforced plane stress square panel is subjected to loads as shown in the figure. The material and geometric properties are given as E=1106,v=0.25,a=30 in ., thickness of panel t=0.02in., cross sectional area of bar A=0.2in2. The spring constant k=2000lbin. The panel is subjected to one uniform distributed (normal) load p1=5000 psi and a uniformly distributed tangential (shear) load p2=4000, as shown in the figure. A bar is used to reinforce the panel. A concentrated P=2000lb is also applied at node 2 as shown.
a) Express the reduced element stiffness matrix [kbar],[kQ4S], and [KStructure].
b) Express the reduced FE system equation {F}=[K]{d} in numerical form ({d} is unknown).
c) Find the nodal displacements for the system (spring, bar, and Q4 Square elem.
