Step 7: Verification & Validation
It is very important that you take the time to check the validity of your solution. This section leads you through some of the steps you can take to validate your solution.
Simple Checks
Does the bending stress agree with the theoretical value? We checked this in step 6.
Refine Mesh
Let's repeat the solution on a finer mesh with smaller element size. Repeat the mesh steps, but this time we have one additional step after inserting the mapped face mesh. Under Details of "Mesh", expand Defaults and enter value of 100 for Relevance. Click Solve to obtain a new solution.
How does the refined mesh compare with the original mesh?
