3. Modeling A

3.1. Characteristics of modeling

We use 3D modeling and the CONTINUE contact treatment method.

3.2. Characteristics of the mesh

The mesh contains 1 element of type QUAD8, 768 elements of type TRIA6, and 3072 elements of type TETRA10.

3.3. Tested sizes and results

The sum of the absolute values of the difference between the calculated solution and the analytical solution is tested.
