We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

photo ı applied force from this surface and ı split this face with line and also ı did same to bottom plate then ı created plane then ı used this plane for creating coordinate system and also ı used remote force. so this part seems ok ı guess.

As I said before, I thought about whether it would be more correct to apply displacement or force on the model and as I mentioned above, I created 2 different models. In the first model, I obtained 239 mpa (force was applied), in the second model, I applied displacement and obtained 242 mpa (it says the tests were performed with 0.0020 inch/min, so I applied 0.0020 inch). In order to see the difference between them and I observed that it did not make a big difference. What I am trying to explain is that I did not apply two things to the model at the same time. In order to observe the difference, I applied force and displacement separately.
 
I used directional deformation while calculating shear modulus. Also, I checked the force reaction and of course I got what I applied.
