4. B modeling#

4.1. Characteristics of modeling#

Fragile modeling is done with modeling AXIS_JOINT and law CZM_LIN_REG. Volume elements are modeled with model AXIS.

4.2. Characteristics of the mesh#

The mesh is linear.

Count of elements: 280 QUAD4.

Number of interface elements: 15 QUAD4.

4.3. Tested sizes and results#

Non-regression test: diametral contraction (\(\mathrm{-}2\mathrm{\times }\mathit{DX}\) from point \(B\)), traction force (the resultant \(\mathit{DY}\) of REAC_NODA out of \(\mathit{CD}\) multiplied by \(2\pi\)) as a function of the tensile displacement \(\mathit{DY}\) (on \(\mathit{CD}\)).

4*Summary of results

Non-regression tests are carried out for both models. In addition, comparison tests with the Rousselier model are carried out for modeling A.
