T-Beam: Verification and Validation
"Verification and validation" can be thought of as a formal process for checking results. We previously performed some sanity checks on the deformed shape. A further basic check is how the results change on refining the mesh. The following video shows how to recalculate the results including the stress concentration factor on a refined mesh.
...
There is only a slight change on refining the mesh. The stress concentration factor on either mesh is accurate to within the level of accuracy of the cited formula, i.e. 5%. This increases our confidence in the ANSYS results.
