1.1. Geometry#

There are 4 beams of length \(L\) modelled with POU_D_E.

\(\mathit{Pout01}\), \(\mathit{Pout02}\): they are along the global axis \(X\). \(\mathit{Pout03}\), \(\mathit{Pout04}\): their axis is in the \((1.0\mathrm{,1}.0\mathrm{,0}.0)\) direction.

1.2. Material properties#

Characteristics of the material

\(E\mathrm{=}\mathrm{2.0E11Pa}\) \(\nu =0.30\)

1.3. Geometric characteristics#

All the beams have the same rectangular cross section:

\(\mathrm{HY}=0.2\) \(\mathrm{HZ}=0.1\)

The length of the beams is \(\mathrm{2m}\).

1.4. Boundary conditions and loads#

All the beams are originally embedded: knots \(\mathit{N1},\mathit{N2},\mathit{N3},\mathit{N4}\).

A move is imposed at the other end: knots \(\mathrm{NA},\mathrm{NB},\mathrm{NC},\mathrm{ND}\).

An effort can be imposed on the middle node: knots \(\mathit{IA},\mathit{IB},\mathit{IC},\mathit{ID}\).
