Ok maybe I'm just a really green engineer by asking this ... but I have stumbled onto those google searches and all I can calculate is the Young's Modulus (E) which has a unit of pressure.
Nastran stiffness is not given in units of pressures. It is in units of lbs/in or N/mm. So my follow-up...
Hello,
Hoping someone can help me out here.
First the scenario:
We have a test set-up that I have to model in Nastran. As an oversimplification of the set-up, think of a simply supported beam on both ends. The supports are made of steel blocks topped with a 1/4" thick silicon rubber so...
