1. Description#

1.1. Geometry#

The study model is a square plate with side \(c\mathrm{=}\mathrm{1m}\) and thickness \(\mathit{ep}\mathrm{=}\mathrm{0.05m}\).

1.2. Material properties#

The properties of steel for the plate are given in the following table.

Material

Steel

Young Module

\(2\mathrm{\times }{10}^{11}\mathit{Pa}\)

Fish Coefficient

\(0.2\)

Density

\(7800\mathit{kg}\mathrm{/}{m}^{3}\)

1.3. Boundary conditions and loads#

1.3.1. Boundary conditions#

The side defined by segment \(\mathit{AB}\) of the plate is locked at 0 for components \(\mathit{DX}\), \(\mathit{DZ}\) and \(\mathit{DRY}\), in addition, component \(\mathit{DY}\) is locked at \(A\).

1.3.2. Loading:#

The loading consists in applying a linear force according to \(Z\) on the two points \(C\) and \(D\), going from \(0\) to \(50000N\mathrm{/}m\) in one step (1.0 s).
