    OS-V: 0020 Cylinder Shell PatchTest No. LE2OptiStruct examines the outer surface tangential stress at point E for linear static analysis.

    Figure 2:

    Benchmark ModelQuad8 elements are used to create a mesh on the cylindrical patch with 4 elements for the loadcase 1 and Quad4 elements are used to create a mesh with 16 elements for the load case 2. Allthe translations and rotations are constrained at edge AB, z-translation and normal rotations areconstrained at the edges AD and BC. For Load case 1 a uniform normal edge moment of 1.0 kNm/m isapplied on the edge DC and for the Load case 2, uniform outward normal pressure of 0.6 MPa is appliedon the mid surface ABCD and a tangential outward normal pressure of 60.0 MPa is applied on edge DC.

    OS-V: 0030 Radial Point Load on a HemisphereTest No. LE3The model is a hemispherical shell subjected to concentrated radial loads at its free edges. It examinesthe performance of the three-dimensional shell to model local bending behavior under conditions wherethe deformations are primarily due to bending.

    Figure 3:

    Benchmark Model4-node, first order CQUAD4 elements are benchmarked in LE3. The hemisphere is 10m in radius and0.04m in radial thickness. Two pairs of identical loads, 4000N, are applied at the free edge of thehemisphere, and are at right angles to each other. One pair of the loads is directed inwards (towardthe center) of the hemisphere, while the second pair is directed outward from the center, producingdeformation of compression in one direction and elongation in another. Since both the geometry andloads are symmetrical, only a quarter of the hemisphere is modeled. Symmetric boundary constraintsare applied on edges AE and CE. The z-translation at point E is fixed, and all displacements on edge ACare free. The test also requires the mesh of the hemisphere to have equally spaced nodes on edges AC,CE, EA, BG, DG, and FG. The target is x-translation at point A, with a target value of 0.185m.

    The material properties for the hemisphere are:

    E68.25 GPa

    0.3

    Linear Static Analysis ResultsAll results are normalized with the target values of x translation at point A.

The steel roller starts rollingfrom a point 60mm from the left-hand side of the rubber mat. The center of the roller is fixed inhorizontal and vertical direction, for a time period of 0-1 second the bottom surface of the rubber isdisplaced 3mm in the negative y direction, the sheet x-displacement is fixed and there is no rollerrotation. For the time period of 1-2 second the bottom surface of the rubber sheet is held at 3mm y-displacement and rotation of 360 degrees is prescribed to the steel roller where the sheet is free tomove in horizontal direction. There is no force applied on the system and the coefficient of frictionbetween the two surface is 0.3.
