2. B modeling#

2.1. But#

The purpose of this test is to validate the use of imposed moves (other than blocks) in CALC_EUROPLEXUS.

2.2. Description#

The plexu03a test is repeated by keeping only the cable in the model.

The degrees of freedom DY and DZ of the 5 nodes present are blocked. The movements are imposed in DX on the 5 nodes also so that there is no dynamic effect (which makes it possible to have a reference solution with STAT_NON_LINE).

2.3. Principle of validation#

We test the movements in DXsur with several knots at the end of loading.

The expected trips are obtained, which means that the load has been correctly taken into account. The difference in constraints is due to the difference in kinematics between Code_Aster and EPX. Indeed Code_Aster does not have GROT_GDEP kinematics for BARRE modeling, so we use PETIT_REAC.
