Linear Static Analysis

Simulation Foundations Bootcamp: Course 2

Hi Emre,

The next courses of this bootcamp will focus on how to use all the power of cloud-native simulation for all 4 major physics available in SimScale.

After introducing the simulation settings, we will simulate a stress analysis on a crane.

Have a look at the finished tutorial (https://email.simscale.com/e3t/Ctc/LZ+113/d2msDj04/VWbYbs80QHQGW5MP_SS8nS836V7Wb0N5VtWHNN8DGmDH5m_5PW7Y9pgv6lZ3kTW6sqdjw11Qqx8W834hjT7z6SNlW94fLwc4LNh7tVTst9x5DMn3CW87ZfGp5jrnmcW4Vv3cG2JZhw3W9jvs3-3vM8L7W5f94696ZLbBzW1dwXhG4Qd4krW2RtQTT4Y1QtXW6vn3hK2qwT9-W3Yq5_Z2ZxWSVW1ZbZKF8c68JzW7TnWrb26zF8hW6D7qZV7M3MQRW8Z20mm8ZYfF1W6pDJw893MfzDW3g4mPd4blRlrW2K16jg8RHrN-VvH4rY14HBsLW4BfnYL8NsmppW1-mb3_1QxwPLN3QYxtyDCJHqV952js94VtX9W2lJWtJ6xKx7DW6Sth_w3W2p23Vl7ZSX1MK8y7W8PzRth7M-QPJW8s6-Cp2VzfgbW1VdKfl45J46yVtn7cT8K2TpQN6LTmDv-CGd6Vz8fSh7BzrlnW7mK4gC8pkrN1W10l-d44tfnm_W59XhJg5mvddvW10QpSM2NhVbDW2d6jnJ52M9llW2WcKng2jPwzhW3j8pjf3_kJ-pW80tCMk7m7bndW61SjfB4ZDZgBf81HMZT04 )

How to create a Static Analysis simulation

The Static analysis type allows time-invariant calculation of displacements, stresses, and strains in one or multiple solid bodies.

To create a static analysis, select the desired geometry, and click on ‘Create Simulation‘. In the window that pops up, you can find all analysis types available:

In order to properly set up a Static Analysis simulation, you will need to consider various aspects such as: Global Settings, Geometry, Contacts, Materials, Boundary Conditions, Mesh, etc. Get to know all simulation settings (https://email.simscale.com/e3t/Ctc/LZ+113/d2msDj04/VWbYbs80QHQGW5MP_SS8nS836V7Wb0N5VtWHNN8DGmFg3prCCW95jsWP6lZ3kYW1S5zWx83sl25W2dXs123YDVVcN6PMbV3q40R7N1PYxFKtNjvCW6DQNg-1Pl8hLW8vzMGW76sNvjW1Vp-HG7nyMcpW8JwrLn8sgjnpW8WqMq567jRfyW9clthP4xjrsTN89VXl6Y5KKLW84sz_c4X77kGW81XX5T17P22XW6hX0vc2KmFZGW3LWCMs86-hfpW4-sX-k5YFx39W1brRQR203HcmW1mzyQK6BH3dVVc578l2G6nl4W2R8c-b4lZwBFVTWkQD4Z9KmpW5mqJlT4LNwbKVTwwX27Km4BDW6t0pZV9hdV3lN1rkbmM2csQgVbYswL4p2DfdW8TpnbM54rQgSW9gb4vT3f-mvcW5zK9Qq405kPSW2C5hXF93t0J5f5q-JGb04 ) .

🚀 Running a Static Analysis tutorial

Now that you understand what is required to run static analysis simulations, we can apply this knowledge on a real life scenario.

What to expect from the tutorial

Von Mises Stress

It can be seen that the highest stress levels occur close to the free end of the crane, where the force boundary condition is applied. There is also a high-stress region next to the top fixed support face.

Displacement

As expected, the free end of the crane undergoes the largest deformations, based on the initial position. The total maximum displacement due to the weight of the structure and the applied force is roughly 4 millimeters in this scenario.

🎉 Congratulations! You have run a Statics Analysis tutorial!

Stay tuned for the upcoming Fluid Flow course and enjoy the simulation journey!

Kind Regards,

Emma
