u3.13.01 Modelings AXIS, D_ PLAN, C_ PLAN

Summary:

The models AXIS, D_ PLAN, C_ PLAN (Phenomenon: mechanical) correspond to finite elements whose support meshes are surface.

The modeling assumptions are as follows:

• AXIS for axisymmetry (Fourier mode 0) along the Y axis,

• D_ PLAN for plane deformations,

• C_ PLAN for plane constraints.

This document describes:

• 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.
