Experimental Finite Element Approach for Stress Analysis

الملخص EN

This study aims to determining the strain gauge location points in the problems of stress concentration, and it includes both experimental and numerical results.

Strain gauges were proposed to be positioned to corresponding locations on beam and blocks to related node of elements of finite element models.

Linear and nonlinear cases were studied.

Cantilever beam problem was selected as the linear case to approve the approach and conforming contact problem was selected as the nonlinear case.

An identical mesh structure was prepared for the finite element and the experimental models.

The finite element analysis was carried out with ANSYS.

It was shown that the results of the experimental and the numerical studies were in good agreement.
