Axisymmetric Analysis of a Coffee Cup

Model Description:
In the previous exercise, a coffee cup was modeled with 2D plate elements. Because the geometry, loads, and boundary conditions were symmetric, only 1/8th of the model was created and symmetry boundary conditions were applied. However, the cup can also be modeled with axisymmetric elements, where the model can be observed in even greater detail without an increase in model size. In order to ensure a congruent mesh, and to apply a hydrostatic load, the cross section of the model will be created with four surfaces. The model will be constrained at its bottom surface in the Z translation. A hydrostatic load will be applied with a linear pressure distribution with a spatial field. To create the field a PCL function will be used. After running the analysis with MSC.Nastran, the exercise will be post-processed in MSC.Patran. Figure 22.1 - Coffee Cup

Suggested Exercise Steps:

s Create a cylindrical coordinate system. s Create the curves that define the outer edge of the cup (on the XZ global plane). s Offset these curves by 0.125 to define the thickness. s Create curves to define the top of the cup. s Use these curves to edit the existing curves to obtain surfaces. s Specify mesh size on the surfaces. s Mesh the surfaces. s Add midnodes to the elements. s Create the material properties. s Create the axisymmetric element properties. s Apply constraints and pressure equation. s Submit for analysis. s Postprocess the results.
