Static Analysis of a Corner Bracket (2D Analysis)

1. Modeling
Create Two Rectangle of Dimensions as follows
X1 X2 0 6
Y1 Y2 -1 1

X1 X2 4 6
Y1 Y2 -1 -3

Draw two circles of radius 0.4 at each end
Perform Boolean operation and create the final plane as shown in the figure













2. Define Material properties EX 30E6 and Poissons ratio : 0.27
3. Define Element type as Solid - 8 node PLANE 82
4. Define Real constants for the geometry using options for PLANE 82 element to define tk : 0.5
5. Mesh the geometry setting Global size Element edge length : 0.5
6. Save the work with DB extension
7. Apply constraint on left extreme hole as All DOF
8. Apply Pressure load on extreme right bottom hole in the range of 50 500
9. Solve the problem
10. Perform Gen Post processing and Plot the Results as shown below
