v3.01.004 SSLL04 - Spatial structure on elastic supports

Summary:

The static linear elasticity test is used to validate straight beam elements POU_D_T and DIS_TR.

This test case concerns a spatial structure on elastic supports with the presence of a ball joint.

The support reactions and bending moments as well as the deflection are tested by comparing simulation results with the reference solution AFNOR (ref. [1]) as well as those obtained with the Pipestress software.
