Ansys WB Lecture 3 Cantilever Beam FEA Model | Strain gauge placement for load calculation

In this session (Lecture 3):

Cantilever beam theory.
Cantilever beam FEA model in True-Load.
- strain gauge placement for load reconstruction
- load calculation
- attach loading functions to unit load cases in FEA model
- create Quasi-Static Events
- strain correlation and cross-plot measured strain vs simulated strain

In this series:

Use True-Load for Load Reconstruction in Ansys Workbench.
- Know the operating loads on structures without using traditional load transducers
- Automatically generate strain gauge placement on your FEA model.

Complete virtual design iterations with True-QSE.

Fatigue analysis with export to FEA fatigue packages.

Headlamp and cantilever beam examples used throughout training.
