Young’s module: \(E=2.10E-5\mathrm{MPa}\)

Poisson’s ratio: \(\nu =0.3\)

1.3. Boundary conditions and loads#

\(\mathit{A1}\): \(\mathit{DX}\mathrm{=}\mathit{DY}\mathrm{=}\mathit{DZ}\mathrm{=}\mathit{DRX}\mathrm{=}0\)

\(\mathit{A2}\): \(\mathit{DY}\mathrm{=}\mathit{DZ}\mathrm{=}\mathit{DRX}\mathrm{=}0\)

Loading

  • case 1: axial force \(P\) in \(G\)

  • case 2: axial force \(P\) in \(C\)

  • case 3: axial force \(P\) in \(A\)

  • case 4: bending moment \(M\)

1.4. notes#

For cases 2 and 3, an effort in \(G\) is applied in \(\mathit{A2}\), then a moment of bending is superimposed in \(\mathit{A1}\) and \(\mathit{A2}\) (following \(\mathit{oz}\) for case 2, following \(\mathit{oy}\) for case 3) in order to offset the force at \(C\) (or in A).
