1. Problem definition

verification-HSLS01

  • Material properties:

    • Young's modulus, E = 200 GPa
    • Poisson ratio, nu = 0.3
    • Coefficient of thermal expansion = 1e-5 1/C
  • Thickness properties:

    • Thickness: 10 mm
  • Supports:

    • Fix all edges
  • Loads:

    • Temprature gradient of 100 C. Top face hotter than bottom face by 100 C
