Basic problem in ABAQUS/CAE

Submitted by tanmoy.deb@iit… on
Hi, i have a simple problem.




Suppose, one cube is there
with sides 10
units each.
 
Now,
m applying a pressure of 16 units on the top of the cube, applying
fixed B.C. at the bottom of cube.
 
The whole cube is meshed into 8
elements.
 
I want to find the nodal force at the
central node i.e at the
centroid. (linear elastic analysis)



RESULT : The central node i.e at centroid, it should give 400 units as nodal force. But it is giving only 100 units.




kindly help
me to solve the basic problem.
