M modeling ============== Validation of the interface element HEXA8 with the cohesive law for fatigue CZM_TRA_MIX in open mode. Loading here is cyclical to cycle through all states of the law. Characteristics of modeling ----------------------------------- D_ PLAN modeling for the elastic element. Modeling PLAN_INTERFACE_S for the interface element Characteristics of the mesh ---------------------------- Number of knots: 12 The elastic element is a HEXA8. The interface element is a degenerate HEXA8 (nodes combined). Tested sizes and results ------------------------------- .. csv-table:: "**Size tested**", "**Reference**", "**Tolerance (** :math:`\text{\%}` **)**" "Global response :math:`F` inst 9.6", "1.03932", "0.10" "Global response :math:`U` inst 9.6", "0.06235", "0.10" "SIGN (SIEF_ELGA) inst.9", "9", "0.10" "SIGN (DEPL) inst.9", "9", "0.10" "SITXinst. 9.6", "0.0", "0.10" "V1 installation 2.5 (contact)", "0.01", "0.10" "V4 installation 2.5 (contact)", "0", "0.10" .. csv-table:: "V1 inst.5.4 (tray)", "0.017991", "0.10" "V4 inst. 5.4 (tray)", "0.079910", "0.10" .. csv-table:: "V1 inst.7.4 (discharge)", "0.029991", "0.10" "V4 inst. 7.4 (discharge)", "0.199910", "0.10" "V1 inst.12.6 (endo)", "0.108662", "0.10" "V4 inst.12.6 (endo)", "0.869312", "0.10" "V1 inst.23 (broken)", "0.16", "0.10" "V4 inst.23 (breaking)", "1", "0.10" We test the normal stress on a gauss point: SIGN (SIEF_ELGA) as well as the Lagrange multiplier on a middle node: SIGN (DEPL).
