Aim
The aim of this exercise is to perform a Finite Element Analysis using M.Sc. PATRAN/
NASTRAN tool on a hyperboloid structure. The structure is a part of the tail section of PW-6U
glider. Angular straight Beams are created as re-enforcement of the structure. The load is
taken from the manual of the PW-6U glider and a Linear and a Buckling analysis is performed
to see the effect of the beams on the structural strength.

Problem Description
The primary design of a small fuselage section of an aircraft.
Design of re-enforcing beams for the fuselage and the aim is to evaluate the structural
integrity of the entire structure.
The beams are made of Aluminium, E = 69000 M.Pa, Poisson Ratio = 0.33.
The beams are solid rectangular beams with W = 3, H = 7.
The skin of the fuselage is also made of aluminium and having a thickness of 0.5mm.
One end of the fuselage is totally fixed and the other side is under a load of 2379 N
which is horizontal with the axis of the structure. (The load is given in `Y' axis).
The structure should be able to take the load and the beams should be able to perform
properly under buckling while the skin is kept very thin.

p.s: We are creating 2 point curve between one point of the first circular curve and second point of the
other circular curve as our aim is to create straight curve in an angle between two circular curves.

C. Option: 2 point
D. Uncheck Auto Execute
E. Select Point 1 as shown in picture as
starting point list.
F. Select Point 2 as shown in the picture
as ending point list
G. Click Apply
H. Follow the same steps and create a
curve for point 3 and 4.

Note: In this step we will break the circular curves at every point on the curves. That means we will
break that one circular curve in ten small curves.
A. Click on the Geometry icon.
B. Geometry: Edit/Curve/Break.
C. Option: Point.
D. Check the Delete Original curves.
E. Uncheck Auto Execute.
F. In the Curve list select the circular curve as
shown in the figure.
G. In the Break point list option select all the
points on the selected curve similarly how
we selected the curve list.
H. Click Apply.
