4. B modeling#
4.1. Characteristics of modeling#
The modeling characteristics are the same as Model A.
4.2. Characteristics of the mesh#
The mesh includes 5488 nodes, 868 quadratic hexahedra (HEXA20) to model concrete, 62 degenerate quadratic hexahedra (HEXA20) to represent the steel-concrete interface, and 62 quadratic quadrangles (QUAD8) to represent the reinforcing sheet.
4.3. Tested sizes and results#
The horizontal displacement of the reinforcement sheet at the end of the plate at two different times is compared with the three-dimensional reference modeling. These tests are duplicated with non-regression tests.
