 Introduction
Many structures that are three-dimensional can be satisfactorily treated as
two-dimensional problems by using of the finite element method for
deformation and stress analyses of two-dimensional elasticity problems.
First, the basic equations in plane elasticity theory are reviewed.
Then several types of 2-D finite elements for plane elasticity analysis are
presented.
 Pengantar
Banyak struktur tiga dimensi yang dapat diperlakukan secara memuaskan
sebagai masalah dua dimensi dengan menggunakan metode elemen hingga
untuk analisis deformasi dan tegangan dari masalah elastisitas dua dimensi.
Pertama, persamaan dasar dalam teori elastisitas bidang.
Kemudian disajikan beberapa tipe elemen hingga 2-D untuk analisis elastisitas
bidang.
1. The torque arm shown below is a 5 mm thick automotive component made of
structural steel with a Young’s modulus of 2xx GPa and a Poisson’s ratio of 0.3xx
Using ANSYS Workbench, determine the deformation and von Mises stress distributions
under the given load and boundary conditions
2. A bicycle wrench shown below is made of stainless steel with a Young’s modulus of 1xx GPa and a Poisson’s
ratio of 0.2xx
The wrench is 2 mm thick. Using ANSYS Workbench, determine the location and magnitude of the maximum
deformation and the maximum von Mises stress under the given load and boundary conditions.
