6. E modeling#

This test reproduces bench EPX bm_str_lcab_frot. It validates the use of friction cables in EPX without damping.

6.1. Friction material#

The material BPEL_ACIER is assigned to the cable for Code_Aster and to the friction discretes for EPX with the following parameters:

FROT_LINE

0.018

FROT_COURB

0.38

These coefficients correspond to twice the regulatory friction coefficients of type TICC (Strands Injected with Cement Grout).
