Evaluating the Scenarios

For each scenario, you view the results for the factor of safety and maximum resultant displacement. The scenarios that violate the constraints are highlighted in red.

  1. On the Results View tab, select the Scenario 2 column.
    Scenario 2 is highlighted in red as the maximum resultant displacement is larger than 1 mm (set as constraint).
    Variables Scenario 2
    Right_Pedal_Force 50 kgf
    Left_Pedal_Force 50 kgf
    Right_Handle_Force 25 kgf
    Left_Handle_Force 25 kgf
    Rider_Seat_Weight 0.001 kgf
    Density 0.0027 g/mm^3
    Yield_Strength 5.5149e+007 N/m^2
    Poissons Ratio 0.33
    Elastic_Modulus 6.9e+010 N/m^2
    Frame Displacement 1.30 mm
    Minimum FOS 2.61
  2. On the left frame of the study tab, open the Results and Graphs folder and double-click Frame Displacement.
    The program plots the resultant displacement plot for design scenario 2.

    The results from the other scenarios do not violate the maximum displacement constraint.
