Chapter7: Beam problems (Element :BEAM3-2D- Elastic Beam)

BEAM3 - 2-D Elastic Beam geometry

Element Description BEAM3 is a uniaxial element with tension, compression, and bending capabilities. The element has three degrees of freedom at each node: translations in the nodal x and y directions and rotation about the nodal zaxis. Assumptions and Restrictions

The beam element must lie in an X-Y plane and must not have a zero length or area. The beam element can have any cross-sectional shape for which the moment of inertia can be computed. However, the stresses are determined as if the distance from the neutral axis to the extreme fiber is one-half of the height. The element height is used only in the bending and thermal stress calculations. The applied thermal gradient is assumed linear across the height and along the length. The moment of inertia may be zero if large deflections are not used.

BEAM3 Input Data Figure 7.1: "BEAM3 Geometry" shows the geometry, node locations, and the coordinate system for this element. The element is defined by two nodes, the cross-sectional area, the area moment of inertia, the height, and the material properties. The initial strain in the element (ISTRN) is given by /L, where is the difference between the element length, L (as defined by the I and J node locations), and the zero strain length. The initial strain is also used in calculating the stress stiffness matrix, if any, for the first cumulative iteration.

You can use the element in an axisymmetric analysis if hoop effects are negligible, such as for bolts, slotted cylinders, etc. The area and moment of inertia must be input on a full 360 basis for an axisymmetric analysis. The shear deflection constant (SHEARZ) is optional. You can use a zero value of SHEARZ to neglect shear deflection. See Shear Deflection for details. The shear modulus (GXY) is used only with shear deflection. You can specify an added mass per unit length with the ADDMAS real constant. Node and Element Loads describes element loads. You can specify pressures as surface loads on the element faces, shown by the circled numbers in Figure 7.1: "BEAM3 Geometry". Positive normal pressures act into the element. You specify lateral pressures as a force per unit length. End "pressures" are input as a force. KEYOPT(10) allows tapered lateral pressures to be offset from the nodes. You can specify temperatures as element body loads at the four "corner" locations shown in Figure 7.1: "BEAM3 Geometry". The first corner temperature T1 defaults to TUNIF. If all other temperatures are unspecified, they default to T1. If only T1 and T2 are input, T3 defaults to T2 and T4 defaults to T1. For any other input pattern, unspecified temperatures default to TUNIF. KEYOPT(9) is used to request output at intermediate locations. It is based on equilibrium (free body of a portion of the element) considerations and is not valid if:

stress stiffening is turned on [SSTIF,ON] more than one component of angular velocity is applied [OMEGA] any angular velocities or accelerations are applied with the CGOMGA, DOMEGA, or DCGOMG commands.

"BEAM3 Input Summary" summarizes the element input. Element Input contains a general description of element input.

The solution output associated with the element is in two forms:

Nodal displacements included in the overall nodal solution Additional element output as shown in Table 3.1: "BEAM3 Element Output Definitions".

Figure 7.2: "BEAM3 Stress Output" illustrates several items. Solution Output gives a general description of solution output. See the ANSYS Basic Analysis Guide for ways to view results. The Element Output Definitions table uses the following notation: A colon (:) in the Name column indicates the item can be accessed by the Component Name method [ETABLE, ESOL]. The O column indicates the availability of the items in the file Jobname.OUT. The R column indicates the availability of the items in the results file. In either the O or R columns, Y indicates that the item is always available, a number refers to a table footnote that describes when the item is conditionally available, and a - indicates that the item is not available.
