OS-V: 0010 Elliptic Membrane

Test No. LE1 The model is a thin plate of thickness 0.1m subjected to a uniform pressure for linear static analysis. OptiStruct examines the direct stress $σ_{y y}$ at the point on inside the ellipse on the x-axis.

Benchmark Model

Second order Hexahedral, Penta, Tetra, Quad and Tria elements are used to create the coarse and fine mesh. A uniform outward pressure of 10 MPa is applied on the outer face. The pressure is converted to force and is applied to the nodes for Quad8 and Tria6 elements.

The material properties are:

Material Properties: Value
Young's Modulus: 210 x 10³ MPa
Poisson's Ratio: 0.3

Linear Static Analysis Results

All results are normalized with the target value (92.7 MPa).
