5. Summary of results#

For each A (3D) and B (2D plane) modeling:

  • the travel results are in good agreement with those obtained by CASTEM 2000, relative to the combination of CQC modes (error < 0.3%), for single-support cases without and with static correction, and multi-support cases without static correction, and multi-support without static correction.

  • the results in movements, accelerations and nodal reactions, with excitations equal to the supports, are strictly identical via the two correlated single-support and multi-support models, in the case without static correction. In the case with static correction via the pseudo-mode, a maximum difference of 0.9% is observed in the nodal reactions, between the single-press and multi-support configurations.
