As an optional exercise, you can modify the model and run a dynamic analysis of the skew plate in Abaqus/Explicit. To do so, you must add a density of 7800 kg/m3 to the material definition, replace the existing step with an explicit dynamic step, and change the element library to Explicit. After making the appropriate model changes, you can create and run a new job to examine the transient dynamic effects in the plate under a suddenly applied load.
