Problem Statement: A load of 80,000-N (represented in pink arrows) and a fixed restraint (represented Green arrows) are applied on the end faces of a Hollow Plate as shown in figure below. Conduct Solidworks Static Analysis Simulations (with Standard Mesh technique) to solve for Maximum Von-Mises stress (N/mm) & Maximum displacement (mm) values using Coarse (11.22mm), Medium (5.75mm) and Fine (2.86mm) Mesh Element Sizes. (Material: Alloy Steel) Presenting your information: i. In a word document provide screen captures of "Von Mises stress", "displacement" & "Mesh Details" for each simulation. ii. Create XY plots (using graphing tools such as MS EXCEL / MATLAB/MATHCAD etc.) for (a) "Max Von Mises Stress" vs. "Mesh Element Size" (for Coarse, Medium & Fine) (b) "Max Displacement" vs. "Mesh Element Size" (for Coarse, Medium & Fine)
