v3.05.200 SSLX200 — 3D connect_ POU: Simple traction and pure flexure of a free-standing embedded beam

Summary:

The objective of this test is to validate that the 3D_ POU (AFFE_CHAR_MECA) connection has been taken into account. This connection makes it possible to establish a link between a beam-type modeling and a solid-type modeling. The test case represents a beam:

• Part of which is modeled with solid elements and the other part modeled with beam elements,

• Recessed at one end and free at the other end,

• Subjected to tensile and flexural forces.

Two types of analyses are carried out:

• Linear static analysis: displacements and stresses are tested in the case of tensile and flexural loading,

• Dynamic analysis: we test the first two flexure modes.
