plot..

Deflection: The maximum deflection occurs on the right hand side of the
plate and was calculated to be 0.001 mm - neglecting the effects of the
hole in the plate (ie - just a flat plate). The actual deflection of the plate is
therefore expected to be greater but in the same range of magnitude.
Stress: The maximum stress occurs at the top and bottom of the hole in
the plate and was found to be 3.443 MPa.
The plot should look similar to the one shown below. Make a note of
the node closest to the top of the circle

Stress value on the particular node

Result

Stress analysis was successfully done on the Plate with Hole using ANSYS.
From this analysis we are finding Displacement and Stress on the plate. Hence,
design is safe.

Stress Analysis of a Stepped Bar Element
Problem Description
A thin steel plate of uniform thickness 25mm is subjected to a point
load of 420N at mid depth as show in fig. The plane is also subjected to
self weight. If youngs modulus, E=2e5 N/mm
2
. Calculate the
displacement at each node and stress in each node.
Given data:
Thickness t=25mm
Point load p=420N
youngs modulus,E=2e5 N/mm
