1. Reference problem#

1.1. Geometry#

The model is a console beam of length \(5m\) oriented along the \(X\) axis. The right section is I-shaped, with upper and lower soles of different sizes (Figure 1). (Figure 2).

1.2. Material properties#

The material properties are listed in the following table.

Material

Concrete

Young Module

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

Fish Coefficient

\(0.25\)

Density

\(9167.0\mathit{kg}/{m}^{3}\)

1.3. Boundary conditions and loading#

The beam is embedded at one of its ends: all the degrees of freedom of node A are blocked.

A force of 1.E4N is imposed on node B in the z direction.
