4. example#

The following example applies to the calculation of global quantities on a dynamic model of a reactor building. The following are modelled: the outer chamber, the inner chamber, the internal structures, the tank well.

The modeling of a half-building is carried out by beam elements, discrete elements representing ground connections, additional masses and connections between nodes.

It is on this beam model that the operator POST_ELEM will calculate:

  • the mass of the structure,

  • the coordinates of the center of gravity,

  • the inertia tensor,

  • the potential energy of certain modes and its distribution in the structure,

  • the kinetic energy of certain modes and its distribution in the structure.

4.1. Calculation of mass, center of gravity and inertia#

  • for the whole structure (TOUT = “OUI”)

  • for the group of elements containing the beams (GROUP_MA = “pou_d_t”)

  • for the group of elements containing the ground links (GROUP_MA = “liai_sol”)

  • for the group of elements containing the additional masses (GROUP_MA = “masses”)

  • for the group of elements containing the links between nodes (GROUP_MA = “liai_noe”)

Order

massestr = POST_ELEM (MODELE = stickmod,

CHAM_MATER = to kill, CARA_ELEM = caraelem, MASS_INER = _F (GROUP_MA =( “pou_d_t”, “liai_sol”, “masses”, “liai_noe”), TOUT = “OUI”,), TITRE =”mass, center of gravity and inertias of the structure”);

4.2. Calculating the potential energy of modes 1, 2 and 7#

  • for the whole structure (TOUT = “OUI”)

  • for the group of elements containing the beams (GROUP_MA = “pou_d_t”)

  • for the group of elements containing the ground links (GROUP_MA = “liai_sol”)

  • for the group of elements containing the additional masses (GROUP_MA = “masses”)

  • for the group of elements containing the links between nodes (GROUP_MA = “liai_noe”)

Order

enerpot = POST_ELEM (RESULTAT = fashion,

MODELE = stickmod,

NUME_MODE = (1,2.7,),

CHAM_MATER = to kill,

CARA_ELEM = caraelem,

ENER_POT = _F (TOUT = “OUI”,

GROUP_MA = (“pou_d_t”, “liai_sol”,

“masses”, “liai_noe”),

),

TITRE = “potential energies of modes 1, 2 and 7”,

)

4.3. Calculating the kinetic energy of modes 1, 2, and 7#

  • for the whole structure (TOUT = “OUI”)

  • for the group of elements containing the beams (GROUP_MA = “POU_D_T”)

  • for the group of elements containing the ground links (GROUP_MA = “LIAI_SOL”)

  • for the group of elements containing the additional masses (GROUP_MA = “MASSES”)

  • for the group of elements containing the links between nodes (GROUP_MA = “LIAI_NOE”)

Order

MODELE = stickmod,

NUME_MODE = (1,2.7,),

CHAM_MATER = to kill,

CARA_ELEM = caraelem,

ENER_CIN = _F (TOUT = “OUI”,

“masses”, “liai_noe”,),
