Real Stress or a Mathematical Ghost?

Coarse and fine FEA mesh comparison showing increasing peak von Mises stress at a stress singularity

How to spot a stress singularity in your FEA results Developmech  |  Engineering Analysis & Simulation The number that doubles when you “improve” your model You run a finite element analysis on a loaded steel bracket. The peak von Mises…
