Linear Elastic Axisymmetric Branched Shell with Pressure Loading

Test Description

An axisymmetric branched shell of thickness 0.01m is modeled with point A fully fixed. The shell model is subjected to uniform internal pressure loading over edge BCD. Linear elastic static analysis is performed on the model.
