Modeling A ============== Characteristics of the mesh ---------------------------- The structure is modelled by a regular mesh composed of :math:`8\times 8` TRIA6, respectively along the :math:`x,y` axes. The interface is not meshed. .. image:: images/10000000000002EE000002F4832CAD5C0E318EE3.png :width: 4.0272in :height: 3.8626in .. _RefImage_10000000000002EE000002F4832CAD5C0E318EE3.png: **Figure** 2.1-1 **: Plate mesh (TRI6)** Tested sizes and results ------------------------------ The bifurcation is located along an edge, on the segment of vertex nodes :math:`(\mathrm{0,}0.5)`, :math:`(\mathrm{0,}0.625)` and middle node :math:`(\mathrm{0,}0.5625)`. The fork takes place precisely at point :math:`(\mathrm{0,}0.55)` and the interface does not go through the middle node. We then test the movement on the middle node positioned in :math:`(\mathrm{0,}0.5625)`, to verify that it is positioned on the "right" side of the interface. * * * .. csv-table:: "**Identification**", "**Reference**", "**Tolerance**" "DEPL_X ", "", "" "NO_M: H1X", "1.0", "1E -12%" "NO_M: DX", "1.0", "1E -12%" Additional results ------------------------- We find the "regularization" of the bifurcation in the vicinity of the coordinate point :math:`(\mathrm{0,}0.55)`. .. image:: images/1000000000000392000003243F5F95F5805E8A94.png :width: 5.5465in :height: 5.0661in .. _RefImage_1000000000000392000003243F5F95F5805E8A94.png: **Figure** 2.3-1 **: Field of movement along X for the fork "before" the midpoint**
