SLX 08: simply supported thin arc under inplane bending

SLX 08: simply supported thin arc under inplane bending

Description

Material		Modulus of elasticity	$E = 200 000 N/mm^2$
Material		Poisson’s ratio	$\nu= 0.3$
Geometry	Cross-section	Tube	$d_i = 16mm$
	Cross-section		$d_e = 20mm$
	Boundary conditions	In point A	Simple support
	Boundary conditions	In point B	Roller support
Loads		In point C	$F = 0.1kN$

Note: the arc is approximated with 16 line segments
