4. B modeling#

4.1. Characteristics of modeling#

The beam is modelled by elements DKTG and GRILLE_EXCENTREE. 16 elements are used in the longitudinal direction \(X\) and only one in the transverse direction \(Z\).

Reinforced concrete is modelled by behavior law GLRC_DM. The parameters of the law of behavior GLRC_DM are obtained using the DEFI_GLRC macro-command. The material data used is defined in 1.2. For the reinforcement layers of model GLRC, a reinforcement section \(\mathit{OMX}\mathrm{=}\mathit{OMY}\mathrm{=}\mathrm{8,04E-4}\mathit{m²}\mathrm{/}m\) and the eccentricity \(\mathit{RX}\mathrm{=}\mathit{RY}\mathrm{=}\mathrm{0,872}\) are defined. We use option PENTE =_F (

TRACTION =” PLAS_ACIER “,

FLEXION = “UTIL”,

KAPPA_FLEX = 3E-3,

),

The first two natural frequencies (calculated with*Code_Aster*) are \({f}_{1}=38.7\mathit{Hz}\) and \({f}_{2}=153.2\mathit{Hz}\). For modal depreciations of 5%, the damping coefficients \(\alpha =8{.10}^{-5}\) and \(\beta =20\) are obtained. These coefficients are supplied to the macro command DEFI_GLRC.

4.2. Tested sizes and results#

The reaction curves as a function of time as well as the arrow in the center as a function of time are shown in figures to.

The tests are carried out for the reaction on the first press and the arrow in the center. These values are tested for a few moments in the first three seconds of the earthquake, i.e. at times \(\mathrm{1.76s}\) (at the very beginning of the non-linear domain), then \(\mathrm{2.05s}\), \(\mathrm{2.68s}\) and \(\mathrm{2.87s}\) when the structure is already heavily damaged.
