Example69 Simplified Model for Bracket Analysis Using Remote Load

General

  • How to simplify an analysis model by using a remote load is explained.
     

  • A remote load is used if a torque load is taken into account as well as a distributed load.
     

  • Unless specified in the list below, the default conditions will be applied.

The displacement diagram is shown below. The contour diagram shows the magnitude of displacement. The unit is [m].

 

 

By setting a remote load, a torque displacement in the rotational direction is generated.
