v2.02.100 SDLL100 - Transient dynamic response of a girder under simple tension

Summary:

This test problem corresponds to a direct transient analysis of a damped or undamped linear system, consisting of a girder under simple traction, subjected to Heaviside-type loading applied from the initial instant.

The discretized problem with a single beam element has an analytical reference solution.
