3. Modeling A#

3.1. Characteristics of modeling#

_images/1000121200000C8100000EAD45BC4BB23A8BA082.svg

The bars \(1-2\), \(2-3\), \(3-4\), and \(4-1\) are each modeled by 1 element BARRE.

The cables are each modelled by a CABLE element.

3.2. Characteristics of the mesh#

So there are 4 elements BARRE and 2 elements CABLE.

3.3. Quantities tested and results of modeling A#

We start by testing the \(N\) tensile forces in cables and bars:

Identification

Reference

Tolerance

\(N\) in the \(3-4\) bar at NUME_ORDRE =2

-1000, 0

0.03%

\(N\) in cable \(1-3\) to NUME_ORDRE =2

-1414.2

0.03%

\(N\) in the \(1-2\) bar at NUME_ORDRE =2

0

1.0E -3%

\(N\) in the \(2-3\) bar at NUME_ORDRE =2

0

1.0E -3%

\(N\) in the \(4-1\) bar at NUME_ORDRE =2

0

1.0E -3%

\(N\) in cable \(4-2\) to NUME_ORDRE =2

0

1.0E -3%

3.3.1. Other values tested#

We also test the nodal force at the N3 node, which must be equal to the external force applied (i.e. \(\mathrm{1000N}\) according to DX):

Identification

Reference

Tolerance

FORC_NODA, direction DX, at node N3 and at NUME_ORDRE =2

-1000, 0

0.03%

The parameters of the result data structure are also tested:
