D modeling ============== Validation of joint :math:`\mathrm{2D}` with the JOINT_MECA_FROT law Characteristics of modeling ------------------------ Modeling in plane deformations D_ PLAN for the elastic element. Plane modeling for the joint element (keyword PLAN_JOINT). Characteristics of the mesh ---------------------------- Number of knots: 6 The elastic element is a QUAD4. The joint element is a degenerate QUAD4 (knots combined). Tested sizes and results ------------------------------- **Mode I** The joint is opened up to its tensile strength threshold [2] _ . :math:`U\mathrm{=}{U}_{\mathit{el}}` Then we take advantage to get to :math:`U\mathrm{=}2{U}_{\mathit{el}}`. It passes into compression zone :math:`U\mathrm{=}\mathrm{-}{U}_{\mathit{el}}\mathrm{/}3`. Finally, the joint is recharged up to its equilibrium point :math:`U\mathrm{=}0`. We test the global response (the resultant of the nodal force, FN) of the system (joint and cube) in the local coordinate system. The reference values are obtained analytically (see page :ref:`6 `). **Fashion** :math:`\mathit{II}` The joint is solicited by sliding in :math:`\mathit{II}` mode. We then test the value of the :math:`c` membership. Then we change the normal aperture to :math:`I` mode and we slide back and forth in :math:`\mathit{II}` mode for :math:`{U}_{t}\mathrm{=}\mathrm{\pm }{U}_{\mathit{el}}\mathrm{/}3`. +----------------------------------+-------------------------------------------------------------+---------------------------------------+ |**Size tested** |**Reference** |**Tolerance (** :math:`\text{\%}` **)**| +----------------------------------+-------------------------------------------------------------+---------------------------------------+ |**fashion** :math:`I` | +----------------------------------+-------------------------------------------------------------+---------------------------------------+ |FN, peak value |:math:`{\sigma }_{\mathrm{max}}` is 2.D05 |0.10 | +----------------------------------+-------------------------------------------------------------+---------------------------------------+ |FN, no change in peak value |:math:`{\sigma }_{\mathrm{max}}` is 2.D05 |0.10 | +----------------------------------+-------------------------------------------------------------+---------------------------------------+ |FN, compression value |:math:`{\sigma }_{\mathit{max}}\mathrm{/}3` is -6.66666667D04|0.10 | +----------------------------------+-------------------------------------------------------------+---------------------------------------+ |FN, value at the equilibrium point|0.0 |0.10 | +----------------------------------+-------------------------------------------------------------+---------------------------------------+ |**fashion** :math:`\mathrm{II}` | +----------------------------------+-------------------------------------------------------------+---------------------------------------+ |FT, membership value |:math:`C` is 1.D05 |0.10 | +----------------------------------+-------------------------------------------------------------+---------------------------------------+ |FT, sliding value and membership |:math:`-{K}_{N}{U}_{t}\mu -c` is -1.2445666D+06 |0.10 | +----------------------------------+-------------------------------------------------------------+---------------------------------------+ |FT, sliding value and membership |:math:`{K}_{N}{U}_{t}\mu -c` is 1.244647D+06 |0.10 | +----------------------------------+-------------------------------------------------------------+---------------------------------------+ ..
