    Hydrostatic pressure pressure

    Hi BigH, Thank you for your responding. The fixture is like a very large but thin container. Al frames and two flat plates bolted on the side. it is 79" tall, 72" wide, and 0.9" depth (inside gap). The pressure I calculated is from the grout density x fixture height and applied to the plat...

    Hydrostatic pressure pressure

    Hello, I was asked to analyze a fixture that contains grout material. The fixture is a like a thin open top box has a volume of 79" (height) 72" (width) and 0.9" (depth). One wall is made of 0.5" Lexan plate (E=345ksi, Poisson ration:0.37, Fty=9,000 ksi) and another one is made of aluminum...

    rotational acceleration input in Patran

    Hello all, Thanks you very much for your repsonds! MSC Nastran is the solver. I was asked to apply just 1rad/s^2 in the x dir (as for trial run) to a node that connect to the rest of the component by a RBE 2 element. In patran window, I go to Loads/Load BC / Create/Acceleration/Input Data...
