Modeling A ============== Characteristics of modeling ------------------------ Modeling in plane deformations on the following mesh :math:`\mathrm{2D}`: .. image:: images/Shape2.gif .. _RefSchema_Shape2.gif: Characteristics of the mesh ---------------------------- Number of knots: 25 Numbers and types of meshes: 16 SEG2, 16 QUAD4 with elements D_ PLAN_SI. Tested sizes and results ------------------------------ .. csv-table:: "**Value tested**", "**Reference**", "**Type**", "**Variance**" "Displacement :math:`\mathrm{DX}` in :math:`C`", "-1,25", "Analytical", "1.7%" "Displacement :math:`\mathrm{DY}` in :math:`C`", "4.25", "Analytics", "0.3%" notes --------- The stress is called dominant flexure. Through this calculation, we show the difficulty for the QUAD4 even sub-integrated to represent the modes of deformation in flexure in plane deformation and for a coefficient :math:`\nu` close to 0.5. This results in an excessive stiffness of the element due to the shear terms of the discretized gradient operator: this is a numerical block. .. image:: images/Shape3.gif .. _RefSchema_Shape3.gif:
