    Flexure Plate FEA Validation

    My analysis is trying to find the deformation of the plate. The assumptions that I've made before were to simplify it into a beam however that did not yield correct values. I am using the same young's modulus and force and simplifying it into a simple cantilever beam with the force at the end. I...

    Flexure Plate FEA Validation

    Hello, I am unsure what steps to take when trying to validate a flexure plate. My hand calculations do not match up with my FEA and I am unsure what formulas I am supposed to be using for this situation. I've tried simplifying into a simple cantilevered beam but the results do not match up. Any...
