Tensile Bar: Verification and Validation
One can think of Verification and Validation as a formal process for checking results. Each of these terms has a specific meaning which we won't get into here. We have already done some checks on the ANSYS results by comparing them to the hand calculations and checking that the ANSYS solution agrees with the appropriate traction or displacement boundary condition at each boundary. Let's next check ANSYS's displacement value at the right boundary with the value in our hand calculations.
