Executive Summary:
In this report we are going to have to analyze stress developed on a stiffen plate which is
vastly used in ship structures. solve 2 given problems of Truss Analysis with the software
Abaqus Using finite Element methodWe are required to use this software ABAQUS to
analyze this problem..
Our approach to solve the problem is, we have to first create the model of the problem in
abaqus software. Then we have to define the material to be used as trussfor those element
and give the properties as given in the problem . Then we have to set the boundary
condition and give the load on the node element given. The we have to create mesh and
define the element type and finally we have to create the job and submit and then the result
can be shown. In the result we would clearly be able to see the deformation and stresses
formed. We can then get the desired result.
Introduction:
We could think of the problem structures as a small part of a structure and we have to
know if the truss elementsgiven structure are able to take the load conditions in real life.
Using the abaqus software we can simulate a real life scenario and be able to see the
stresses develops on the structure. A truss structure is made with truss elements and nodes.
And studying of the is important. Because these kind of structures are widely seen in
bridges , large civil structures, Crane arms and many more structures. And we need to be
able to know if the design is going to be strong enough to hold the loads it is going to face.
Also from this analysis we will be able to know that which element is going to fail and we
can think of using element of better performance.if they could sustain the loads introduced.
Goals and Objectives:

Primary goal of the experiment is to find the nodal displacements, elemental stresses and
reaction forces for problem 1 and displacement of node 1 and stresses in each element.
Solving the problems we would be able to simulate the real life condition and scenario.
Then looking at the result and the color code represented in result section we would be able
to determine id the truss element we used would be strong enough. Also we will be able to
see which element take what amount of load, and also which element would take no load at
all. If there is such element which takes no load we can then also not use then element or
use element of lower strength to reduce cost.When given load on the panel it will undergo
deformation and develop stress in the panel. We want to find these along with von mises
stress, yield stress, then observe if it is safe.
Goals and ObjectivesAnticipated Results:

In the problem we will give a unit load then observe the deformation. My anticipations
are,In problem 1 5 nodes in total. 3 nodes there we see that they are fixed nodes. This
means these three nodes are not going to move no matter what force is applied on them.
One of the node has 20kn of load on it acting upwards at 30 degree angle with the vertical
line. This would give 2 positive component in both X and Y axis. So can expect the node to
move to right and up a little.
 The stiffened lines will experience the least deformation.
 Other unsupported areas will experience the most deformation.
 No deformation along the edges.
In the second problem however we have 4 nodes in total and 3 of them are fixed and not
going to move and other node takes a load of 18kN acting downward. So we can expect the
node to move downwards a bit and all the elements should be in tension.
Mathematical Idealization:
Mathematical Representation:
The center of the figure was placed at the center. All other sides are fixed. The sides are of
2m, the load acting downwards.
Geometrical Representation:
I only had to make a vertical line and give the dimension. That was all it needed to make
the geometry of it.
Here’s how it looks.
Boundary Conditions:
The stiffeners are fixed u1, u2, u3 is 0.
Also the edges of the plate is fixed they also cannot move.
Material Model:
For the problem to start working with the structure the software has to know what is the
structure is made of. So we have add some properties of the material used so Abaqus
knows what it is working with. So we set Young’s modulus of 200Gpa and the poisons ratio
of 0.3 for the material.
Solution Procedure and key Result:

--First I created parts which had property of 3D deformable and shell and extrusion type.
--Then we created material for use as element and set their own material properties.
--Created section.
--Then to give the structure its property we assigned the material we created earlier with
assign section tool.
--Then gave the section and from assembly set the instance independent.
--Then I created static general step.

--Then gave the boundary condition.
--Then gave load.
--From mesh module we created mesh
--Last now I can create job and submit and monitor and see the result.
Key Result:
Von mises stress
Interpretation and Validation:
As we can see the result now, we can compare the result with the anticipated result.
As we anticipated there is no deformation along the edges and the stiffened line has no
deformation and the most deformation we can see is at the unsupported areas
Conclusion:
In this stiffen panel experiment, using finite element method, we had been able to simulate
real world scenario. And anticipated the whole experiment went alright. Result data show
that this works as expected.
This experiment has a big significance as these panels are used in so many places. And
being able to extract the result before any construction of this kind helps to prevent real
world hazards. Also helps to reduce any construction cost. So we can conclude that this
whole experiment was a success and it is a success for those who are working in this
construction and with this construction and also a success for people who are going to
interact with those constriction.
