Sample Problems for STAGSC-1.
Abstract
Sample problems and clarification for the STAGSC-1 computer program are presented. The report is directed toward the beginning user of STAGSC-1, and possibly the beginner in structural and/or finite element analysis. This report was prepared as an introduction to using the STAGSC-1 computer program. It is not an attempt to rewrite the current STAGSC-1 User's Manual; however, as with any manual, there are certain aspects which sometimes are not easy to understand. This report is especially addressed to the user that might not be as experienced as the STAGSC-1 manual presumes. Clarification of selected input data cards which this reviewer found somewhat confusing are covered in Section 1.2. Section 1.3 of this report discusses selected output messages, nomenclature, and options which will aid in understanding the STAGSC-1 output. Section 2.0, which comprises the bulk of this report, is an assembly of various sample runs. The input data for the sample problems are included in the main text of this report. Additional keywords: Shell structures; buckling; computations; flat composite plate; stiffness; nonlinear analysis.
