4. B modeling

4.1. Characteristics of modeling

Discrete translational stiffness element DIS_T

Characteristics of the elements

Boundary conditions:

DDL_IMPO:	( TOUT:’OUI’ DZ: 0. )
LIAISON_DDL:	(telle que :math:`\mathrm{3Dy}\mathrm{=}\mathrm{4Dx}`en tous les nœuds)

Node names: \({P}_{\mathrm{1,}}{P}_{\mathrm{2,}}\mathrm{....},{P}_{8}\)

4.2. Characteristics of the mesh

Number of knots:	8
Number of meshes and types:	7 SEG2

Points \({P}_{1}\) and \({P}_{8}\) are connected to a fictional fixed point by node springs (K_T_D_N, A_T_D_N) which makes it possible not to model nodes \(A\) and \(B\).

Eigenmode standardized to the unit modal mass: \({\phi }_{i}^{t}C{\phi }_{i}+2{\lambda }_{i}{\phi }_{i}^{t}M{\phi }_{i}\mathrm{=}1\)

\(\lambda\): is the eigenvalue associated with damping and natural frequency.
