    General Plane Motion - Quasi-static equivalent loading

    Hi rb1957, Thank you for clarifying the availability of 3 translational and 3 rotational body loads. I'm seeking any known scheme that combines these body loads to approximate the acceleration states experienced by a connecting-rod in a crank-slider arrangement. The rudimentary scheme that I...

    General Plane Motion - Quasi-static equivalent loading

    Hello, I would like to model the connecting-rod from a crank-slider arrangement, and include the loading that tends to bend the connecting-rod due to acceleration, the dynamic body loads. The connecting-rod is in general plane motion as one end is rotating while the other end is reciprocating...

    Ring with internal pressure, trapezoidal section

    Hello, I'm looking for some help: I would like to find a solution for a thick walled ring with internal pressure loading. It is a similar problem to a thick walled pressure vessel except the cross section is trapezoidal rather than rectangular. There is plenty of theory for curved beams of...
