2. Benchmark solution#

2.1. Calculation method used for the reference solution#

Travel:

  • Points \(B\) and \(E\)

\(f=\frac{{\mathrm{Pl}}^{3}}{96{\mathrm{EI}}_{1}}+\frac{{\mathrm{Pl}}^{3}}{96{\mathrm{EI}}_{2}}\) with \({I}_{i}=\frac{b\times {e}_{i}^{3}}{12}\)

  • Points \(G\) and \(H\)

\(f=-\frac{{\mathrm{Pl}}^{3}}{192{\mathrm{EI}}_{1}}(\frac{{I}_{1}}{{I}_{2}}+\frac{7}{2})\)

  • Bending moment:

\(M(x)=\frac{\mathrm{P.x}}{2}\)

2.2. Reference quantity#

  • \(\mathrm{DZ}\) move from \(z\) to points \(B\) and \(G\).

  • \(\mathrm{MXX}\) soft moment for \(x=\frac{L}{2}\) and \(x=\frac{L}{4}\)
