3. Modeling A#

3.1. Characteristics of modeling#

Q4GG modeling is used for the slab.

3.2. Characteristics of the mesh#

The slab mesh contains 64 elements of type QUAD4 and 64 elements of type TRIA3.

3.3. Precision on materials#

The materials used in this modeling do not take into account nonlinear shear.

3.4. Tested sizes and results#

At the final moment, the values of vertical displacement, stress and moment, read back by Code_Aster, are tested. They are compared with values from a EUROPLEXUS calculation alone.
