A Piezoelectric Shear Actuated BeamA Piezoelectric Shear Actuated Beam

This is example presents a static analysis of a piezoelectric actuator using the piezoelectric application mode from the Structural Mechanics Module (or the MEMS module). A sandwich beam consisting of three layers is modeled. The...

Channel BeamChannel Beam

This benchmark model demonstrates how to use the Structural Mechanics Module's Beam interface. It calculates the deformation, section forces, and stresses in a cantilever beam as well as a number of eigenfrequencies.

Contact Analysis of a Cellular Phone Screen AssemblyContact Analysis of a Cellular Phone Screen Assembly

A design criterion for cellular phone cases is to make sure that the case is strong enough to protect the components of the device. Especially for the screen assembly it is important that a load which would cause damage is not reached...

Critical Frequencies for a RotorCritical Frequencies for a Rotor

The rotor in an electric motor is analyzed. In the design of a motor it is important that no eigenfrequencies for the rotor lie within the operating interval of the revolution speed (in revolutions / second) for the motor. If the...
