  • Create the material in the Materials editor and assign it to the Design Space. In this case the material behaviour is Isotropic.

    • The specific values needed are the Elastic Modulus (192e3 MPa), Poisson’s Ratio (0.3) and Density (7.97e-6 kg/mm3).

  • The Tension Strength is the maximum allowable stress for the material and is set to 320 MPa.

For this model one local coordinate system needs to be created to easily apply the corresponding force to the model.
By opening the Coordinate Tools a local coordinate system is created by entering the three orientations (alpha = 75°, beta = 90°, gamma = 315°) and placing it on the front plane (coordinate system 1)2).

Coordinate system 1 is already created and is the Principal Coordinate System.

Go to the Loads & Boundary Condition Tool to enter the loads and fixations. Displacements, Forces, Moments, Gravity and Pressure Loads can be applied using different selection options.
