Elastic static analysis

This verification was performed with a mesh-divided cantilever, as shown in Fig. 9.1.1. The analysis was performed with seven load conditions, exA–exG, as illustrated in Fig. 9.1.2. Please note that exG has the same load conditions as those of exA using the direct method solver.

The verification result of each load condition is presented in Tables 9.1.1–9.1.7.

In this verification, the Hertz contact problem between a cylinder of infinite length and an infinite plane was analyzed. The cylinder’s radius was R=8 mm, and the deformable body’s Young’s modulus E and Poisson’s ratio µ were 1100 MPa and 0.0, respectively. Moreover, assuming that the contact area was much smaller than the cylinder’s radius, and also considering the symmetry of the problem, the analysis was performed with a quarter model of the cylinder.

(5) Linear dynamic analysis

In exW, a linear dynamic analysis was performed on the same mesh-divided cantilever that was discussed earlier in the Elastic static analysis subsection, with the verification conditions shown in Fig. 9.1.12. The objective was to verify the impact of time increment on the results with the same mesh division. Both the implicit and explicit methods of dynamic analysis and the element types 361 and 342 were used. The verification results are presented in Table 9.1.22 and shown in Figs. 9.1.13–9.1.15.
