Hi, I'm modelling a square steel beam connected to an end palte being twisted and pushed into a rigid surface.
I've modelled it in shell as my beam is hollow and will be too thin for proper analysis. I'm using a static linear perturbation step for the analysis and I'm not sure how to model the...
Hi, I've asked this question several times to no avail and I still have to get a working model.
Basically I wish to model a steel beam to column connection that is under torsion. In the picture provided the flanges at the beam are to simulate torsion and the beam is connected to and endplate...
The main problem I am facing in my model, is that when running the model the analysis can take over 30 minutes and there is a warning that says "There are 2 unconnected regions in the model."
This is the model that I have created. There is a UDL on the beam and the endplate is fixed at the...
Hi I'm currently modelling a steel beam under torsion that is welded to a column. I am currently having problems modelling the contact surface as it says that in the Warnings page:
(576 elements are distorted. Either the isoparametric angles are out of the suggested limits or the triangular or...
