This patch test applies constant tensile stress to a domain.

Nine Q4 elements used.

Parameter	Symbol	Value
Young's Modulus	E	2540 kPa
Poisson's Ratio	nu	0.3
Applied Traction	t	3.495 kPa

Plane stress conditions applied

N/A

Displacement prescribed on all degrees of freedom based on nodal position (x, y).

Horizontal displacement: (1 - nu)* t / E * x

Vertical displacement: (1 - nu)* t / E * y

The displacements are prescribed so as to establish tensile stress t in both directions of the domain. The total horizontal reaction force is 8.0385 N/m. The total vertical reaction force is 5.06775 N/m. The stress components are in the x- and y-directions are 3.495 kPa and there is no shear stress.
