CFD_buw is on a distinguished road
Dear members,
I have problems with stressedFoam. I generated a cube with a fixed beam inside. For the mesh generation I just used blockMesh. Then I implemented a pressure which acts on the beam. With the help of sampleDict I am able to read out the displacements in x, y and z direction. The problem is, that my analytical solution results in a different value.
The pressure is 650000 N/m^2 , the length of the beam is 0.2, the cross section is 0.008 m * 0.008 m and the youngs modulus E = 2 * 10 ^11 N/m^2.
My analytical solution for the maximal displacement is 3.174 * 10^-4 m but OpenFoam results in 1.215*10^-5 m.
Has somebody experience with this problem and can somebody give me a good hint?

Warm regards and thank You!
