Benchmark solution ===================== Calculation method used for the reference solution -------------------------------------------------------- Comparison to other numerical results obtained with *Code_Aster* (version 14.2 [:ref:`bib1 `]) with a :math:`3D` mesh of the elbow and straight parts, connected at the ends to straight beams (C modeling). This :math:`\mathrm{3D}` mesh contains 1500 HEXA20 meshes. A modeling of the elbow in elements COQUE_3D gave results comparable to calculation :math:`\mathrm{3D}` (see [:ref:`§2.2 <§2.2>`]). B modeling uses **Plasticity** behavior MFront instead of code_aster VMIS_ISOT_LINE behavior (3D calculation reference). Quantities useful for seismic resistance are also calculated using the following formulas: .. math:: :label: eq-1 \ mathit {EN} = {\ mathrm {\ epsilon}} _ {\ mathit {xx}} .. math:: :label: eq-2 \ mathit {ET} =\ frac {{r} _ {\ mathit {moy}}\ times {\ mathrm {\ gamma}}} _ {\ mathit {twist}}}} {2} .. math:: :label: eq-3 \ mathit {EFY} = {r} _ {\ mathit {moy}}\ times {\ mathrm {\ kappa}}} _ {y} .. math:: : label: eq-4 \ mathit {ESTAR} =\ sqrt {{\ mathit {EN}}} ^ {2}} + {\ mathit {ET}} ^ {2} + {\ left (\ frac {\ mathrm {\ pi}\\ times\ mathit {\ pi}\ pi}\ times\ pi}\ times\ mathit {EFY}}} {4}\ right)} ^ {2}} + {\ left (\ frac {\ mathrm {\ pi}\ times\ pi}\ times\ mathit {EFZ}} {4}\ right)} ^ {2}} Calculation of the second type of quantity for the earthquake: .. math:: : label: eq-5 \ mathrm {\ lambda} =\ frac {e\ times {R} _ {c}} {{r} _ {\ mathit {moy}}} ^ {2}} ^ {2}} and .. math:: :label: eq-6 k2=\ mathit {max}\ left (\ mathrm {1,}\ frac {\ mathrm {1.65}} {\ mathrm {\ lambda}}\ right) With: .. math:: :label: eq-7 {\ mathit {EFY}} _ {2} =\ frac {{r} _ {\ mathit {moy}}\ times {\ mathrm {\ kappa}}} _ {y}} {y}} {k2} And: .. math:: :label: eq-8 {\ mathit {ESTAR}} _ {2} =\ sqrt {{\ mathit {EN}}} ^ {2} + {\ mathit {ET}} ^ {2} + {\ left (\ frac {\ mathrm {\ pi}\ times\ mathrm {\ pi}\ pi}\ times\ mathrm {\ gamma}}\ times\ mathit {EFY}}} {4}\ right)} ^ {2}} + {\ mathrm {\ pi}\ pi}\ pi}\ pi}\ times\ mathrm {\ gamma}\ times\ mathrm {\ gamma}\ times\ mathit {}}} {4}\ right)} ^ {2}} + {\ left (\ frac {\ mathrm {\ pi}\ times\ mathrm {\ gamma}\ times\ mathit {EFZ}} {4}\ right)}} ^ {2}}} Benchmark results ---------------------- For a moment applied :math:`\mathrm{Mz}` in :math:`D`, moving :math:`\mathrm{DY}` from the same point :math:`D` is equal to [:ref:`bib1 `]: .. csv-table:: "**Moment**", ":math:`\mathrm{Dy}` **point** :math:`D` :math:`(m)` **** **(3D)**", ":math:`\mathrm{Dy}` **point** :math:`D` :math:`(m)` **(** COQUE_3D **)**" "0.
