3.2. Characteristics of the mesh#

Number of knots:

8

Number of meshes:

1 of type HEXA 8

6 of type QUAD 4

The following meshes are defined:

\(\text{S\_ARR}\)

\(\mathrm{NO3}\mathrm{NO7}\mathrm{NO8}\mathrm{NO4}\)

\(\text{S\_AVT}\)

\(\mathrm{NO1}\mathrm{NO2}\mathrm{NO6}\mathrm{NO5}\)

\(\text{S\_DRT}\)

\(\mathrm{NO1}\mathrm{NO5}\mathrm{NO8}\mathrm{NO4}\)

\(\text{S\_GCH}\)

\(\mathrm{NO3}\mathrm{NO2}\mathrm{NO6}\mathrm{NO7}\)

\(\text{S\_INF}\)

\(\mathrm{NO1}\mathrm{NO2}\mathrm{NO3}\mathrm{NO4}\)

\(\text{S\_SUP}\)

\(\mathrm{NO5}\mathrm{NO6}\mathrm{NO7}\mathrm{NO8}\)

The travel limit conditions imposed are:

On nodes \(\mathrm{NO1}\), \(\mathrm{NO2}\), \(\mathrm{NO3}\), and \(\mathrm{NO4}\): \(\mathrm{DZ}=0\)

On nodes \(\mathrm{NO3}\), \(\mathrm{NO7}\), \(\mathrm{NO8}\), and \(\mathrm{NO4}\): \(\mathrm{DY}=0\)

On nodes \(\mathrm{NO2}\), \(\mathrm{NO6}\), \(\mathrm{NO7}\), and \(\mathrm{NO8}\): \(\mathrm{DX}=0\)

The load consists of the same drying field and the same 1/4 node force applied to the four nodes of \(\text{S\_SUP}\).

3.3. Tested sizes and results#

Component \({\varepsilon }_{\mathrm{xz}}\) at node \(\mathrm{NO6}\) has been tested.
