Creo simulate lite, compare bending part and un_bend part

[JOHNAHN]

I am Sangok An, living in Korea.

I am trying to compare two steel plates—one with bending and one without—using Creo Simulate Lite (9.09). However, the results show that the plate without bending performs better, which is unexpected, and I am not sure about the cause.

Analysis conditions:

• Material: SUS304
• Thickness: 6.0 mm
• Fixation: The steel plate is secured to a concrete floor with four bolts.
• Load: 100 kgf

I had attached result and parts,

Best your regards
