Multiphysics analysis: mechanical stress inside a cylinder-piston system

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi all, as written in the title, I need to compute a multiphysics analysis. In particular my model is a 3-point-bended beam inside a cylinder in which there is air at a certain starting pressure. On the top of this cylinder there is a piston which moves and increases pressure. I need to know if this increasing pressure caused by the piston, has an influence on the 3-point-bending.

I attach some screenshots to let you understand better.

By now, I didn't manage to achieve this analysis. I hope you can help me. Thanks in advance! Pierpaolo
