Number of meshes

1 of the QUAD 8 type
4 of the SEG3 type

We define the mesh*AB*, BC, BC, CD and DA. To represent 1/4 of the structure, the boundary conditions are as follows:

On*AB, \(DY=0\);

On*AD, \(DY=0\).

Equal pressure is imposed on the*BC* and CD meshes to simulate a hydrostatic test.

4.2. Tested sizes and results#

The \(\varepsilon_{xx}\) component at the C node has been tested and compared to the reference solution:
