Boundary conditions:
DDL_IMPO = (All=” OUI “, DZ= 0., DRX = 0., DRY = 0.)
To treat articulated connections, as many knots as bar ends are created.

7.3. notes#
In this modeling, the complex dynamic response of the system subjected to complex harmonic excitation (\(F=-9810.+\mathrm{0.j}\)) is calculated in the presence of viscous damping proportional to stiffness and mass. (AMOR_ALPHA = AMOR_BETA =0.1). The results are compared to the results obtained with modeling POU_D_T.
7.4. Tested sizes and results#
The results (Displacement, Velocity and Acceleration) were obtained at a frequency of \(100\mathrm{Hz}\)
