1. Reference problem#

The POST_COMBINAISON command calculates linear combinations of various calculation results associated with user-defined coefficients.

\({C}_{i}\text{}\text{}\text{}=\text{}\text{}\text{}({\alpha }_{i\mathrm{,1}}\times {Q}_{1})\text{}\text{}\text{}+\text{}\text{}\text{}({\alpha }_{i\mathrm{,2}}\times {Q}_{2})\)

Where:

  • is the combination number

  • Q1 is the result/table from a first finite element calculation

  • Q2 is the result/table from a first finite element calculation

  • αi,1 is the coefficient associated with Q1

  • αi,2is the coefficient associated with Q2

  • This is the result of the combination made.

1.1. Geometry#

The model models half of a typical building of a nuclear installation on a 1/4 scale. Elle

consists of three walls V01/02, V03 and V04 placed in a U shape as well as three floors

trapezoidal. Openings are pierced in the V01/02 and V03 sails. Each floor is

supported by a horizontal beam as well as by a vertical column. The model is asymmetric so

to promote twisting movements. The geometric characteristics of the model are

presented on and on the.

The thickness of the sails and slabs is 0.1 m. The thickness of the sole and the support of the pole is 0.25m.

The beams have a rectangular section \(0.325m\times 0.15m\).

The posts have a \(0.2m\times 0.2m\) square section.

  • k_y = 2.e8

  • k_z = 2.e9

  • k_rx=5.e9

  • k_ry = 5.e9
