Problem on the convergence of the solution (Clamped plate problem)
Problem on the convergence of the solution (Clamped plate problem)
(OP)
Hi everyone, I'm creating an algorithm to calculate displacement on plates and I'm following the calculations steps of the example 13.1 of the book "Enegy and Finite Element Methods in Structural Analysis" on page 585. My algorithm (made on MathCAD) does not converge to the exact solution as I increase the number of elements and nodes. Does anyone knows what I might be doing wrong?

having this problem, you could try something simpler (a rod) and see if this works better. If it doesn't work then there's something fundamental in Mathcad to change (increasing the precision, bits, of the numbers)
