7. Modeling E#
7.1. Characteristics of modeling#
Reinforced concrete walls and floors are modelled by DKT plate elements. Reinforced concrete is modelled with a simple elastic law. Beams and columns are modeled by POU_D_E elements. These are considered elastic. The sole is modelled by 3D elements and is considered elastic.
Damping is not considered in the modeling.
In this modeling, we**release**el**es**DDL of rotation on the**common edges** between**veils** and the floors (relaxation**plane**/plane) .** On the other hand, before doing this operation, we apply a rotation to the mesh of the model along the three global axes.
7.2. Characteristics of the mesh#
The mesh contains approximately 2,600 meshes and 2,700 knots (not including the sole). The mesh is that of the.
7.3. Tested sizes and results#
The first three natural frequencies are calculated from modal analysis. These values are compared with the results obtained with D modeling.

7.4. notes#
Exactly the same values as with D modeling are obtained. This method validates the writing of kinematic relationships produced by the Rtool tool tool.
