1. Reference problem

1.1. Geometry

The concrete console is modelled by shell elements (DKT). The reinforcement layers (not eccentric) are modelled by models GRILLE_ENCENTRE for modeling A, MEMBRANE for modeling B and GRILLE_MEMBRANE for modeling C.

1.2. Material properties

Concrete console: \(E=3.{10}^{10}\mathit{Pa}\), \(\nu =0\), \(\rho =2500\mathit{kg}/{m}^{3}\)

Thickness of the console: \(0.2m\); ANGL_REP = (0; 0)

Steel frame sheets: \(E=2.{10}^{11}\mathit{Pa}\), \(\nu =0\), \(\rho =7800\mathit{kg}/{m}^{3}\)

High reinforcement sheet: section per linear meter = \(0.2{m}^{2}/\mathrm{ml}\); ANGL_REP = (0; 0)

Low reinforcement sheet: cross section per linear meter = \(0.2{m}^{2}/\mathrm{ml}\); ANGL_REP = (0; 0)

1.3. Boundary conditions and loads

Boundary conditions and loads break down as follows:

Recessed \(\mathrm{B0X}\) and \(\mathrm{B1X}\) edges

Nodal force \(\mathit{FX}={10}^{7}N\) at node \(\mathit{FLECHE}\) (node in the center of the plate), applied with the following multiplier function \(f\):

Time (s)	\(f\)
0	0
0.001	1
0.01	1
