5. C modeling#

5.1. Characteristics of modeling#

The structure is entirely modelled by Timoshenko beam elements (POU_D_T). It is supported at both ends.

DYNA_NON_LINE calculate the dynamic response for 3 s, due to a nodal force with a value equal to 100 N on the 3D mesh node located at X = 0.02 m.

5.2. Characteristics of the mesh#
