Figure 26
The illustration presents a top-down finite element analysis of the double-slotted composite structure, depicting the Von Mises stress distribution. The geometry features symmetric rectangular arrangements, with dual central slots of square and rectangular cutouts and peripheral mounting holes. Most of the structure is colored red, indicating regions of highest stress, particularly around the slot edges, end faces, and interior corners. Lower stresses, indicated by blue, cyan, and yellow colors, are mainly found in the slots’ central zones and toward the far exterior. The vertical color scale bar on the right ranges from 0.1 times 10 to the 7th power (blue) at the bottom to 1 times 10 to the 7th power (red) at the top. Axes x, y, and z are labeled in the left corner of the image. The horizontal axis extending left is labeled x and ranges from 0 to 400 millimeters with an interval of 200 millimeters. The vertical (y) axis on the right ranges from 1.26 times 10 to the 4th power to 6.57 times 10 to the 8th power (Newtons per square meter). The z-axis from the top front to inside the plan ranges from 0 to 100 millimeters. Grid lines and axis ticks are visible at the top and on the left side.Von mises of the single-slotted composite sensor with a counting axis sensor located at the edge. Source(s): Authors’ own work
