Note:
COSMOSXpress design analysis results are based on linear
static analysis and the material is assumed isotropic. Linear
static analysis assumes that: 1) the material behavior is linear
complying with Hooke’s law, 2) induced displacements
are adequately small to ignore changes in stiffness due to
loading, and 3) loads are applied slowly in order to ignore
dynamic effects.
Do not base your design decisions solely on the data presented in this report.
Use this information in conjunction with experimental data and practical
experience. Field testing is mandatory to validate your final design. COSMOSXpress
helps you reduce your time-to-market by reducing but not eliminating field
tests. |
