4.1. Characteristics of modeling#

4 POU_D_T elements with a full circular cross section: 4 SEG2 meshes

elements \(\mathrm{AC}\) and \(\mathrm{BC}\)	radius \(R=7.978845{10}^{-3}m\)	(area \(A=2.{10}^{-4}{m}^{2}\))
elements \(\mathrm{CD}\) and \(\mathrm{BD}\)	radius \(R=5.641895{10}^{-3}m\)	(area \(A=1.{10}^{-4}{m}^{2}\))
Poisson’s ratio:	\(\nu =0.3\)

Boundary conditions:

DDL_IMPO =_F (All=” OUI “, DZ= 0., DRX = 0., DRY = 0.)

To treat articulated connections, as many knots as bar ends are created.

at nodes \(\mathrm{A1}\), \(\mathrm{B2}\), and \(\mathrm{D4}\): DDL_IMPO =_F (All=” OUI “, DZ= 0. , DRX = 0. , DRY = 0.)
at nodes \(\mathrm{C1}\), \(\mathrm{C2}\), \(\mathrm{C3}\) and \(\mathrm{D3}\), \(\mathrm{D4}\) continuity of translations, by LIAISON_DDLDX and DY.
no rotation is imposed.

Number of knots: 4

Number of meshes and types: 4 SEG2
