v6.02.107 SSNL107 - Embedded plate subjected to bending by beams in contact with the free edge

Summary:

This test validates the one-sided contact between POU_D_E beam elements (Euler’s right beam) and DKQ shell elements.

The main characteristics are:

• linear behavior,

• elastic analysis,

• one-sided contact,

• 2 models: elements POU_D_E and DKQ using CONTACT in AFFE_CHAR_MECA and in AFFE_CHAR_MECA_F.

The reference solution is analytical and the results obtained are of good quality.
