Description:
A cantilever beam has a concentrated load, and then the beam vibration
critically damps. Lobatto integration rules place the quadrature points on
the true surfaces of the shell. [See Hughes].
Model:
The plate measures 1.00 * 0.10 * 0.01 in^3 and is modeled with 60
Belytschko-Tsay shell elements. The displacement of the nodes is fixed at one
end and a concentrated load is applied to the other end. Symmetry conditions
for the plane strain case exist on the beam sides.
Input:
The concentrated loads and load curve definition 1 defines the load on the
end of the beam (*LOAD_NODE_POINT, *DEFINE_CURVE). The beam is critically
damped (*DAMPING_GLOBAL) The number of integration points is 5
(*SECTION_SHELL). The shell integration rule is the Lobatto integration rule
(*SECTION_SHELL)
Results:
The displacement of the beam damps out critically. The x-stress values at the
integration points exhibit tension on one side, compression on the opposite
side, and balance at the neutral axis.
