5. Solution

At this point the items in which we want ANSYS to solve for will be conveyed to ANSYS.

Deformation

...

Stresses, Reaction Forces and Moment Forces

Now, ANSYS will be told to solve for the reaction forces and the reaction moments at the two fixed supports, the direct stress, the minimum combined stress and the maximum combined stress. First Right click Solution > Insert > Beam Tool > Beam Tool.

The stresses will be specified at this point.

(Right Click) Beam Tool > Insert > Beam Tool > Stress > Minimum Bending Stress

Right click Beam Tool > Insert > Beam Tool > Stress > Maximum Bending Stress
