INTRODUCTION TO MSC-PATRAN: BEAMS
1. Model the beam problem described in the lecture note Ch. 5 example (pg. 73)
Notice the boundary conditions.

Distributed load applied at 2nd element
However, the beam cross-section is
(All units in mm)52.2

52.2
I = 4 x 106 mm4
E = 200 GPa
Apply the 1D PATRAN modelling experience from Ch. 2 & 4 to model this beam problem into a .db file. However :
o Instead of ROD elements which can only take axial load & displacement, we now use BEAM elements which could additionally take transverse loading & displacement.
Page 2 of 9
Once the I-beam section have been created, it appears in the selection box and it could be selected as section name
o In addition, for BEAM elements, the beam orientation needs to be defined so that the beam cross section is aligned and orientated accordingly.

Beam axial length direction
Need to define this local x-y plane of the beam. (i.e to define this plane, input ANY vector G on this plane)
G
Check if orientation and cross section correct :

Alternatively, instead of using uniformly distributed load option, we could also apply the nodal loads (as shown in figure 5.5 pg. 73 of the example):
(alternative loading approach is created under “loadcase2”)
2. Create a .bdf file for the above .db model With default output requests (i.e. displacments, stress & spcforces) Apply the 1D PATRAN modelling experience from Ch. 2 & 4 to create the .bdf
file

3. Run the .bdf file above using MSC/NASTRAN Double click the MSC NASTRAN icon to invoke MSC/NASTRAN Input/refer the appropriate .bdf filename Click open & run A DOS window shall appear when NASTRAN is running and when the run is
complete, a line message appears in the window
4. Check the resulting files from the MSC/NASTRAN run Access the appropriate directory where these files are saved There should *.op2, *.f06. *.f04 and *.log files (where * is filename similar to
filename of .bdf) The *.f06 file could be opened using a normal text editor Open the *.f06 file and compare the nodal displacements results with that found
in the Ch. 5 lecture notes.

5. Post-process the result using MSC/PATRAN
Click the Analysis icon and Action Read Ouput file Click the select result file tab and input/refer the appropriate *.op2 file
Click the translation parameter tab and select rotational nodal result
Apply

Now, click the Results icon. Notice the default loadcase, which was run, is shown in the result case box.
In the fringe result box, the displacement, stress and spcforces results are available (as requested)
