Design - Mechanical - Simulation - Conveyors - 3D Tip n Tricks.

    Hello, today I have some free time so I have to write a blog on this topic. The matter of the story is that some people do not accept the results of FEA by beam mesh. So I have a doubt that it's actually a solid mesh in a three-dimensional beam shape. How accurate will it be? Today we will prove it.     First of all, thanks to the trial version of Midas, for which I have compared the MeshFree software too.      There are two types of specimens that we will be testing. It is a full line beam, 1 meter long, and a beam with a slit to insert the beam crosswise. which can be seen in Figure 1. Fig.1 Dimension of the specimens.      A simple test is that we lock one end of the beam and apply a force of 500 N on the other end. The type of the main beam is a JIS G3466 Rectangular tube 200 x 100 x 6. and across the inserted beam is a Square tube 50 x 50 x 6    The section properties of Rectangular Tube 200 x 100 x 6 as below. Unit mass = 26.4 kg/m Area = 33.63 cm² Second moment of area;
