Template \(\mathrm{3D}\)

Consider a tab with dimensions \(50\mathrm{\times }20\mathrm{\times }3.5\mathit{mm}\). It is embedded on the left surface \((\mathrm{S4})\) and a movement of \(49.4142\mathrm{mm}\) following \(x\) is imposed on the right face \((\mathrm{S6})\).

Y

Next pull \(x\):

\(u=49.4142\mathrm{mm}\)

\(v=w=0\)

Flat model (plane deformations)

Consider a tab with dimensions \(100\times 25\mathrm{mm}\). It is embedded on the left surface \((\mathrm{L4})\) and a movement of \(50\mathrm{mm}\) following \(x\) is imposed on the right face \((\mathrm{L2})\).

Y

Next pull \(x\):
