Patch Test C - GCMLab/GCMLab-FEM GitHub Wiki
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
A uniform traction of t is applied to the right and top edges of the domain through nodal forces. Top edge nodes: 3, 4, 8 Right edge nodes: 2, 3, 6, 7
Nodes on the left and bottom edges are restrained. Left edge nodes: 1, 4, 9, 10 Bottom edge nodes: 1, 2, 5
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.
