buckled I-beam
Description
This is the deformed shape of a buckled I-beam after the flanges and web have started to fail. I am a computer structural analyst taking time off work to avoid the corona virus so of course I just had to do this. you will need to use supports ============ TECHNICAL INFORMATION --- GEEK WARNING --- W 12 x 65 I-beam AMS 5643, 17-4 PH stainless steel, H1150 i-beams are not made from this, but those are the properties that i could get easily on open source info analyzed on ANSYS ED 10 classic using: - brick walled on left - enforced downward displacement on right - large displacement - multilinear kinematic hardening --- used a Ramberg-Osgood approximation, so may not simulate a real stress-strain curve - ran to 10 inches forced deflection --- strains were actually beyond elongation allowable - brick-walled on left - holes near diagonal tension area are due to extreme thinning that was less than the filament width used some ANSYS scripts i wrote to convert from ANSYS "upcoord" deformed geometry to an .stl file used sketchup to add a fake wall
