8.1. Characteristics of modeling#

_images/Object_11.svg

We are looking for a movement independent of z; a single « row » of quadrangular elements is therefore sufficient.

Cut: 12 triangles MEC3TR7H. Modeling COQUE_3D.

The thickness of the elements is divided into 3 layers for nonlinear calculation [R3.07.04]. Each layer has 3 integration points in upper layer skin, in the middle of each layer and in lower layer skin. The model studied here therefore includes 7 integration points in the thickness of the plate.

Boundary conditions:

TOUT: “OUI”: DZ = DRX = DRY = 0

Loading: two types of loading are applied:

  • nodal forces in \(C\) and \(D\) and \(E\) (middle node on side \(\mathrm{CD}\)) FX (C) =

\(\mathrm{FX}(D)=\mathrm{pxLh}/6=\mathrm{0.08333N.}\)

\(\mathrm{FX}(E)=\mathrm{2pxLh}/3=\mathrm{0.33N.}\)

  • force distributed on the side \(\mathrm{CD}\) \(\mathrm{FX}=\mathrm{5N}/\mathrm{mm.}\)

8.2. Characteristics of the mesh#

Number of nodes:

75 external + 24 internal

Number of meshes and types:

24 TRIA7 + 1 SEG3

8.3. Tested values#

At order number 10 or \(t=1\). The results are the same with FORCE_NODALE or FORCE_ARETE.
