, Part A - Mesh density and stress concentration
Image showing the simple plate and dimensions used for the analysis to find the pressure and
stresses.
Creo simulate was then used to create a stress analysis, fully fixed constraint was added to the left-
hand side of the simple plate and a Force of 2kN was applied to the right-hand side, meaning the
pressure force P=F/A will equal 2000/45x10-6 = 4.444 MPa, this is used for the pressure load, truly -
4.44MPa was used yellow arrows above shows this. (note the same pressure force is applied to all
the plates used for stress analysis.
