1. Reference problem#
1.1. Geometry#
We consider a beam of length \(1m\) oriented according to \(X\) or according to \(Z\) depending on the models.

1.2. Loads#
1.2.1. Boundary conditions#
In each case, node \(A\) is embedded. Then, depending on the type of moment tested, node \(B\) can either be left free or supported in a given direction.
1.2.2. Divided moments#
The keywords MX, MY, MZ, MZ, MT, MFY and MFZ are applied in turn. The load is linear on the beam:
Knot |
\(A\) |
|
Value (N.m/m) |
1000 |
2000 |
These non-constant loads are affected by the AFFE_CHAR_MECA_F command.
To test distributed moments affected by the AFFE_CHAR_MECA command, we complete this list with constant loads.
