.. _U3.11.03: **u3.11.03** Models CABLE and CABLE_POULIE ================================================ **Summary:** This document describes for models CABLE and CABLE_POULIE: * the degrees of freedom carried by the finite elements that support modeling, * the related support meshes, * the loads supported, * non-linear possibilities, * test cases implementing the models. The models CABLE and CABLE_POULIE correspond to bar elements written specifically to take into account large displacements (cf. [:ref:`R3.08.02 `] and [:ref:`R3.08.04 `]). They cannot be used for linear mechanical analysis problems. .. toctree:: :hidden: self .. toctree:: :maxdepth: 2 :numbered: Discr_tisation Affectation_des_caract_ristiques Chargements_support_s Non-lin_aires Exemples_de_mise_en__uvre___cas-tests
