VERIFICATION EXAMPLES FOR SCADA Pro

Software Verification Examples for SCADA Pro 8  Beam under torsional loading  Fixed boundary conditions Results Comparison Theoretical results for angle of twist ( Pilkey, W.D., Analysis and Design of Elastic Beams: Computational Methods, Wiley, New York, 2002 ) are compared with the ones obtained from ScadaPro analysis in Table A2.1.2. In the same table, results from Sap2000 and Abaqus are also shown. Table A2.1.2. Comparison of Results for Angle of Twist. Angle of Twist (rad) at Theoretical ScadaPro Sap2000 Abaqus x=L 41.20 41.20 41.20 41.20 x=L/2 20.60 20.60 20.60 20.60 Computer Files The project file for this example is “FF1”. These files are provided as part of the ScadaPro installation. Conclusion The result comparison shows an exact match between ScadaPro software, theoretical values and results obtained from Abaqus and Sap2000.
