Thermal stress analysis of ceramic structures with NASTRAN isoparametric solid elements

Abstract

The performance of the NASTRAN level 16.0, twenty node, isoparametric bricks (CIHEX2) at thermal loading was studied. A free ceramic plate was modelled using twenty node bricks of varying thicknesses. The thermal loading for this problem was uniform over the surface with an extremely large gradient through the thickness. No mechanical loading was considered. Temperature-dependent mechanical properties were considered in this analysis. The NASTRAN results were compared to one dimensional stress distributions calculated by direct numerical integration.
