Mesh Settings
Using curvature-based mesh
Applying mesh refinement to the flange edge (max node size of 2.67 mm)
Using h-adaptive method with mesh coarsening enabled
Mesh Convergence
Material yield strength: 460 MPa
Brake + Right Turn
...
Most positive Fx load case
Max stress not converging, but stays within a small range << material yield strength → PASS
Max Node Size (mm) | Mesh Picture, after h-adaptive refinement | Max Stress (MPa) | Location/Results |
|---|---|---|---|
5.63 |   | 4.44 |    |
4.53 |   | 6.405 |    |
3.57 |   | 5.946 |    |
3.01 |   | 7.646 |    |
2.16 |   | 9.071 |    |
Recommendations
Could add a fillet on the boss edge to reduce the stress concentration there, as seen in the above loading cases.
