Tapered Cantilever with Two Load Cases

Application ID: 12681


This example shows a 2D plane stress model of a thin tapered cantilever. Different boundary and load scenarios are examined. It is demonstrated how to apply and how to evaluate different load and constraint groups. Resulting stresses are compared to NAFEMS benchmark values and they are found to be in good agreement.

This model example illustrates applications of this type that would nominally be built using the following products:
