Unmanageable Reactions at restraints in Burried Model - 03/10/11 05:50 AM
Gentlemen,
I have an anlysis done for a Pipeline, out of which certain portion was burried; apparently burried portion posed heavy reactions at the elbow, node 230, restrained so as shown in the model.
I would like to request you to please advise me as to what means or measures I should have to take to reduce these reactions or an alternate sort of restraint should I apply, for structural engineer would frown at me to have seen such hihger loads, as much as 713942N & -728370N.
Regards,
Mirza
