3D Signpost: Verification and Validation

"Verification and validation" can be thought of as a formal process for checking results. A basic check is how the results change on refining the meshWe can first perform a convergence study to check on the suitability of the mesh. Then we compare the FEA predicted maximum normal and shear stresses with those calculated in the spreadsheet discussed in the Pre-Analysis Section. You will want to do this before proceeding to re-analyze the signpost with hollow post(s).
