4. B modeling#
4.1. Characteristics of modeling#
It is a modeling in plane deformations (D_ PLAN). The master and slave surfaces are not compliant.
Young’s modulus \({E}_{1}\mathrm{=}{E}_{2}\) and Poisson’s coefficients \({\nu }_{1}\mathrm{=}{\nu }_{2}\) are \(1.0E9\mathit{Pa}\) and \(0.2\) respectively. The pressure applied to the edge of the outer ring is \(1.0E7+\mathrm{10E5.cos}(2\theta )(\mathit{Pa})\), \(\theta\) being the polar angle.
The outer ring defines the master surface.
4.2. Characteristics of the mesh#
The mesh (Figure 4.2-1) includes:
480 SEG2 meshes;
2640 QUAD4 meshes.

4.3. Tested sizes and results#
Note \(\lambda\) the contact pressure calculated analytically, \(({U}_{x},{U}_{y})\) the displacements calculated analytically.
In the case where the displacements are zero, an absolute tolerance equal to 2% of the value of the maximum radial displacement Urmax=5.5E-03 is defined.
The contact pressure (LAGS_C) and the components of the displacement in the plane (X, Y) (DX, DY) are calculated for the nodes with the following coordinates:
N9 (5.98150400239877E-01, 4.70754574367070E-02)
