Re: pic: FEA - Stress Analysis of Frame Rail

I'm a little confused by the unit representation in the upeer left corner. It looks like I have to multiply it by 10^6 to get the load in psi and 1,576,000 psi seems a bit high for a load on a FIRST bot.

Also I've never done FEA on a bot part. If I'm concerned about a part I break out my copy of "Roark's Formulas" and do a hand calc.
