Reference problem ===================== Geometry --------- .. image:: images/100009BA0000191D00001A9031085C6B3F5E32A3.svg :width: 324 :height: 342 .. _RefImage_100009BA0000191D00001A9031085C6B3F5E32A3.svg: The length of the beams is worth: :math:`L=1m` The beams have a circular cross section: * radius: :math:`R=0.1m` * thickness: :math:`\mathrm{ep}=0.01m` The play between the beams is worth: :math:`\mathrm{Jeu}=1{10}^{-3}m` Material properties ----------------------- :math:`E=1.{10}^{10}\mathrm{Pa}` :math:`\nu =0.3` :math:`\rho =1.{10}^{8}\mathrm{kg}/{m}^{3}` The stiffness of the contact spring is: :math:`{K}_{c}={1.10}^{8}N/m` Boundary conditions and loads ------------------------------------- On the whole structure: :math:`\mathrm{DX}=\mathrm{DZ}=\mathrm{DRX}=\mathrm{DRY}=0`. At the upper and lower ends of the beams: :math:`\mathrm{DY}=\mathrm{DRZ}=0`. In the middle of the left beam: from moment :math:`t=0s`, :math:`\mathrm{Fy}=–1.{10}^{6}N` Initial conditions -------------------- Structure initially at rest.
