Submitted To: Ma’am Umm-ul-Baneen

Submitted By: Shaheer Ahmad Khan (2019-MC-34)

Given Task:

Procedure:
• Give the project the title of “Task-7 (2019-MC-34)” from: Files > Change title, in the
utility bar menu. To get it appear immediately, select Utility menu > Plot > Replot. The
title will appear in bottom left corner of graphics window.
• Select Element type as Quad 8 node from Preprocessor > Element type >Add/Edit/Delete
> Add > Solid > 8 Node 183. Enable the thickness of plate by clicking on OPTIONS
from the opened window then select ‘Plane strs w/thk’ and click OK and then Close.
• Now add real constant from: Preprocessor > Real Constants > Add/Edit/Delete > Add
and click OK. Enter the given Thickness of plate i.e. 0.01m in the opened window, click
OK and close.
• Add the given material properties from: Material Props > Material Models > Structural >
Linear > Elastic > Isotropic. Enter young’s modulus as 210GPa and Poisson’s ratio as 0.3
Click OK and then close.
• In modelling process, create an area of rectangle from: Preprocessor > Modelling >
Create > Areas > Rectangle > By Dimensions. Enter the dimension for rectangle as 0,0.1
–0,0.01 and click apply ,and click OK.

• Begin Meshing and golbal set the element edge length to 0.001 meters by Meshing>Mesh
Tools>Global>Set, then click Mesh>Pick all and click ok.
• Now apply constraints on both sides of rectangular area from: Solution > Define Loads >
Apply > Structural > Displacement > On Nodes. A box will appear, check on ‘box’ then
select all vertical nodes from left side which are not to be displaced and click OK. A new
box will open, select ‘All DOF’ from here and click OK. Do the same for the right side to
fix it at both ends.

• Select all the Y nodes at 0.05 m from: Select>Entities A box will appear select by
Location then select X-axis and put value as 0.05 then click (From All)>Apply>Replot.
Click on Plot>Nodes to see the desired Nodes.
• Apply Force on the top Node at 0.08 meter from Solution > Define Loads > Apply >
Structural > Force and moment > On Nodes. Select top Node where force is to be applied
and click OK. A command box will appear, enter the Force value as ‘-100’ and in
direction of force ‘FY’ (negative sign due to in downward direction).

• Now Click on Select>Entities A box will appear click (Select All)>Apply>Replot.

• Click on plot>Elements to see all the elements.
 • Now begin to solve from: Solution > Solve > Current LS a window will appear showing
‘Solution is Done’.
