The cantilevered bar shown below is made from $$1018\mathrm{CD}$$ steel (1015 CD in Solidworks) and is statically loaded with $$F_x=0\mathrm{lbf},F_y=?200\mathrm{lbf}$$, and $$F_z=0\mathrm{lbf}$$ at point D. Analyze the design using Solidworks simulation and answer the following questions. The Solidworks model is provided. a. Using classical method, determine the minimum factor of safety for yielding using both the maximum stress theory and the distortion energy theory and compare the results. b. Determine the critical stress element by creating a stress contour plot of von Mises stress in the bar. Show the fixtures, external loads and maximum stress annotation on the plot. Is the maximum von Mises stress below the material yield strength? c. Determine the maximum displacement by creating a plot showing the resultant displacement for the bar. Show discrete fringes and maximum displacement annotation on this plot. d. Determine the strength of the bar by creating a factor of safety plot based on von Mises criterion. Show the minimum FOS annotation on this plot.
