After running the simulation, we should get these results:
Total Deformation:
The total deformation is greatest at the top of the truss, and has a magnitude of 0.28 mm.
Equivalent Stress
The greatest stress occurs in the Flexure mounts, and has a magnitude of 30MPa.
Directional Deformation
The Directional deformation is shown to range from -.04mm to +.04mm.
Joint Probes
Each joint probe shows the magnitude and direction of the force at each probe. The results show that there's a range from 200 N to a whopping 1500N. Fortunately, the 1500N force is in the center, and the flexure mount forces have a value around 400N.
