Linear Static Structural Analysis
Basics of Linear Static Analysis Training Manual
K x F
This results in certain assumptions related to the analysis:
[K] is essentially constant
Linear elastic material behavior is assumed
Small deflection theory is used
Some nonlinear boundary conditions may be included
{F} is statically applied
No time-varying forces are considered
No inertial effects (mass, damping) are included

Pressure loading:
Force loading:
Forces can be applied on vertices, edges, or surfaces.
The force will be distributed on all entities. This
means that if a force is applied to two identical
surfaces, each surface will have half of the force
applied. Units are mass*length/time2
A force is defined via vector and magnitude or by
components (in user-defined Coordinate System)

Moment Load:
Remote Load:
Fixed Support:
Given Displacement:
Applies known displacement on vertex, edge, or surface
Allows for imposed translational displacement in x, y, and z (in
user-defined Coordinate System)
Entering 0 means that the direction is constrained.
Leaving the direction blank means that the entity is free to
move in that direction
Frictionless Support:
Cylindrical Constraint:
Applied on cylindrical surfaces
User can specify whether axial, radial, or tangential
components are constrained
Suitable for small-deflection (linear) analysis only
Simply Supported:
Fixed Rotation:
Can be applied on surface, edge, or vertex of surface or line
bodies
Constrains rotations but translations are free
