This document provides the procedure to perform a static analysis of a cantilever beam using ANSYS software to determine the maximum deflection. It describes creating the beam geometry, applying material properties and loads, solving for the solution, and reviewing deformed shape, reaction forces, and displacement results. The goal is to analyze a cantilever beam subjected to a 2000N point load at the free end to find the maximum deflection.

AIM: To perform analysis of a cantilever beam with point load and to find the maximum deflection. HARDWARE REQUIRED: o Intel processor. o A colour monitor with highest 64 bit colour display and with screen resolution 1024 by 768 pixels. o Keyboard and a scroll mouse.
SOFTWARE REQUIRED: o Windows 7 operating system o Ansys 17
PROCEDURE: Step 1: Ansys Utility Menu File – clear and start new – do not read file – ok – yes.
Step 2: Ansys Main Menu – Preferences
Select – STRUCTURAL - ok
Step 3: Preprocessor Element type – Add/Edit/Delete–Add–BEAM–2node 188–ok- close. Material Properties – material models–Structural–Linear–Elastic–Isotropic–EX– 210e3– PRXY – 0.27 –ok – close. Sections- Beam- Common sections-Beam Tool- Sub-type-Select Square Section-B- 200 mm- H-100 mm
Step 4: Preprocessor Modeling – Create–Nodes–In Active CS–Apply (first node is created)–x,y,z location in CS– 4000 (x value w.r.t first node) – ok (second node is created). Create – Elements – Auto numbered – Thru Nodes – pick 1 & 2 – ok (elements are created through nodes).
Step 5: Preprocessor Loads – Define loads – apply – Structural – Displacement – on Nodes- pick node 1 – apply – DOFs to be constrained – ALL DOF – ok.
