v1.01.347 ZZZZ347 — Validation of friction cables CABLE_GAINE

Summary:

The objective of this test is to validate the modeling of prestress cables CABLE_GAINE.

Modeling A is used to validate the use of DEFI_CABLE_BP/CALC_PRECONT with elements BARRE in the absence of friction in curved cases, and serves as a reference to validate modeling CABLE_GAINE in case ADHERENT, tested in modeling B.

C modeling validates modeling CABLE_GAINE in case GLISSANT.

The 3D modeling validates the use of DEFI_CABLE_BP/CALC_PRECONT with the BARRE elements in the presence of friction. It also serves as a reference for modeling E, which validates modeling CABLE_GAINE in case FROTTANT, taking into account linear and curved friction, in the case where there is only one active anchor or both, and finally, with and without anchor recoil.

The F and G models are copies of the E model with the concrete modelled in the shell (DKT and Q4GG), they make it possible to validate the new prestress procedure with shell elements.

Finally, the H modeling tests kinematics PETIT_REAC in comparison with the BARRE elements.
