.. _V1.01.239: **v1.01.239** ZZZZ239 - Validating the calculation of the non-symmetric matrix for the elements DKT =================================================================================================== **Summary:** This test validates the calculation of non-symmetric matrices for elements DKT (application with law ENDO_LOCA_TC). The test consists in applying a loading of shear to a plate. modelled by elements TRIA (modeling A) or QUAD (modeling B). The use of a symmetric matrix led to an absence of convergence. The number of iterations for convergence is comparable to the equivalent 3D case.
