1. Reference problem#

1.1. Geometry#

_images/Object_1.svg

The symmetry of the problem makes it possible to model a quarter cylinder of length \(L\), with symmetry conditions specific to the lower edge.

\(L=\mathrm{2m}\)

Medium radius \(R=\mathrm{2m}\)

Thickness \(e=\mathrm{0.02m}\)

1.2. Material properties#

The properties of the material constituting the plate are:

\(E={2.10}^{11}\mathrm{Pa}\)

Young’s module

\(\nu =0.3\)

Poisson’s ratio

1.3. Boundary conditions and loads#

  • Charging:

  • Uniformly distributed pressure of \({p}_{\mathrm{cr}}=1.\mathrm{Pa}\) on the cylindrical part.

  • Symmetry conditions:

  • on \(\mathrm{AB}\): DZ = 0

  • on \(\mathrm{BC}\): DX=0

  • on \(\mathrm{DA}\): DY=0
