Una placa rectangular simplemente apoyada está sujeta a diferentes tipos de carga. Assuming only the small deformation theory and neglecting self-weight, determine the deflection at its centroid for each load type.
Una barra con una sección cuadrada está fijada en el extremo superior. The rod is loaded by self-weight. For comparison, the example is also modeled with the concentrated force load, the value of which is equal to the gravity. The aim of this verification example is to show the difference between these types of loading, although the total loading force is equal.
Un cable muy rígido está suspendido entre dos apoyos. Determine the equilibrium shape of the cable (the catenary), consider the gravitational acceleration, and neglect the stiffness of the cable. Verify the position of the cable at the given test points.
Una viga de acero cargada axialmente con una sección cuadrada está articulada en un extremo y apoyada en un muelle en el otro. Two cases with different spring stiffnesses are considered. The verification example solves the calculation of the load factors of the beam in the image using the linear stability analysis.
Un muro de fábrica está expuesto a una carga distribuida en el medio de su sección superior. The Isotropic Masonry 2D material model is compared with the Isotropic Linear Elastic model, with surface stiffness property Without Tension in the nonlinear calculation.
Un voladizo de sección rectangular tiene una masa al final. Furthermore, it is loaded by an axial force. Calculate the natural frequency of the structure. Neglect the self‑weight of the cantilever and consider the influence of the axial force for the stiffness modification.
Una viga articulada en ambos extremos está cargada con una fuerza concentrada en el medio. Neglecting its self-weight and shear stiffness, determine the beam's maximum deflection, normal force, and moment at the mid-span, assuming the second- and third-order analysis.
