Numerical Analysis and Static Loading Test of Equipment Fixed on the Light-Weight Partition Wall

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to study the nonlinear responses of equipment fixed on the light-weight partition wall (LWPW). The center-point flexure test (CPFT) and static load test of the light-weight partition wall (LWPW) are developed. The elastic modulus and support loading of three boards can be obtained from FPFT and static loading test. The LWPW finite element model using ANSYS is used to simulate the deformations of the board subjected to external forces. Numerical simulation results are very close to the experiment results. It demonstrates the accuracy of the ANSYS model.
