Master Exercise: Static Analysis
1. Creation and Pre-Processing
Load the CATIA document "catgps_hanger.CATPart"
1.1 - Apply Aluminium to the part
The hanger part is opened in the Part Design Workbench.Apply Aluminium to the part while in the Part Design Workbench.
• Click on the Apply Material icon in the Apply Material toolbar.
• In the Metal tab, click on the Aluminum icon.
• Click on Part representation in specification tree The material will be applied to the part.
• Click OK
• Check that the material is correctly applied to the part.
�� ������������������������ ��������� ���� ����� ������������
COPYRIGHT DASSAULT SYSTEMES 17
1.3 - Open the GPS Workbench and create a Static Analysis of the Hanger.
• Select Static Analysis and click on OK.
At this step, you should have something like this:
�� ������������������������ ��������� ���� ����� ������������
COPYRIGHT DASSAULT SYSTEMES 18
It is time now to apply restraints on the hanger: Clamps to the smallest inner surfaces of both mounting holes
• Click on Clamp icon in Restrain toolbar.
• Select the inner surfaces of the first and second mounting holes. Click on OK.
�� ������������������������ ��������� ���� ����� ������������
COPYRIGHT DASSAULT SYSTEMES 19
1.4 - Now you will apply a load to the inner surface of the foot peg-mounting hole
• Click on the Distributed Force icon in the Loads toolbar.
• Select the footpeg mounting hole.
• Enter the force vector components.
�� ������������������������ ��������� ���� ����� ������������
COPYRIGHT DASSAULT SYSTEMES 20
• Click on OK.
1.5 - Now, you will save the Part and the Analysis Documents in separate folders.
• Click on Save Management… in the File menu.
�� ������������������������ ��������� ���� ����� ������������
COPYRIGHT DASSAULT SYSTEMES 21
• Save the Part • Save the CATAnalysis document in a different folder under:
CATGPS_Hanger_1.CATAnalysis
�� ������������������������ ��������� ���� ����� ������������
COPYRIGHT DASSAULT SYSTEMES 22
2. Computing
Load the previous CATIA Document or "catgps_hanger_step2.CATAnalysis"
2.1 - First of all you have to specify Temporary External Storage location.
• Click on Temporary External Storage icon in the Solver Tools toolbar. • Select a directory with enough space to make the computation.
• In the features tree, double-click on the Computations link and define a directory where the computation files will be saved
• Select a path and click on OK to validate.
�� ������������������������ ��������� ���� ����� ������������
COPYRIGHT DASSAULT SYSTEMES 23
• In the specification tree, double-click on the Results link and define a directory where the results files will be saved
• Select a path and click on OK to validate.
2.2 - At this step, you have defined the different storage locations. Now, you can compute your analysis
• Click on the Compute icon
�� ������������������������ ��������� ���� ����� ������������
COPYRIGHT DASSAULT SYSTEMES 24
The Compute dialog box appears: • Select the "All" option.
• Click on OK.
Wait while computing
Here is what you should obtain:
At this step, you computed successfully the analysis. The step (3) will consist in visualizing the results.

3. Results Visualization
Load the previous CATIA Document or “catgps_Hanger_2.CATAnalysis” Before you trust in the results, it is important to evaluate their relevance. Consequently, the first thing to do is to check the estimated local error.
3.1 - You will create a Precision image
• Click on Precision icon in the Image toolbar
• A symbol is created in the specification tree:
3.2 - Now you will ask CATIA to localize the error extrema
• Click on the ‘Image Extrema’ icon in the Analysis Tools toolbar • Request maximum of 2 absolute values and click on OK
�� ������������������������ ��������� ���� ����� ������������
COPYRIGHT DASSAULT SYSTEMES 26
Here is what you should obtain:
• You can see that the search of extrema appears below the ‘estimated local error’
Now that you have localized the maximal error, you need to evaluate it
• Click on the ‘Image Information’ icon • Select the ‘Estimated local error’ in the specification tree
The Information dialog box is displayed:
�� ������������������������ ��������� ���� ����� ������������
COPYRIGHT DASSAULT SYSTEMES 27
You can see that the Global error rate is about 27%! That is really too much. You need to improve the results by refining the mesh.
3.3 - You will now create a Von Mises Stress image
• Click on the Von Mises Stress icon
�� ������������������������ ��������� ���� ����� ������������
COPYRIGHT DASSAULT SYSTEMES 28
3.4 - You will try to determinate what is the Max. stress in your hanger
• Click on the Image Extrema icon
• Request a maximum of 2 global maximum values.
• Select the Von Mises Stress in the tree:
You obtain:
The extrema features appear in tree.
You can read that the max. Stress is about 6.2e7Pa. The aluminum yield strength is 9.5 .107 N/m2 (see Information box above) You could conclude that the hanger would not plastically deform under these conditions However, you need more accurate results to make sure.
�� ������������������������ ��������� ���� ����� ������������

You will create reactions tensors on restraints.
3.5 - Create a new sensor by right clicking on sensors.1 in the tree and select Create Resultant Sensor > Reaction Sensor.
• Select Clamp.1 from the Restraints • Click on Update Results.
.
�� ������������������������ ��������� ���� ����� ������������
COPYRIGHT DASSAULT SYSTEMES 30
Make the sum of external loads and reactions tensors. Check that you obtain a null result
• Click OK The clamp reactions appear in the tree:
• Double-click on the Reaction Sensor to have its tensor.
Note: If you have created two clamps individually, you have to make this for each one
3.6 - You can now publish a report of this first coarse analysis.
• Click on the Generate Report icon in the Analysis Results toolbar
• Specify a report directory and report title.
�� ������������������������ ��������� ���� ����� ������������
COPYRIGHT DASSAULT SYSTEMES 31
• Click on OK
At this step, you know how to:
• Evaluate the global error of an analysis
• Visualize results
• Define sensors
• Publish a report
