6.1. Characteristics of modeling#

The load is of the distortion and pure shear type in the plane.

Figure 6.1-a : m**mesh and boundary conditions**

Modeling: DKT. \(L=1.0m\).

Boundary conditions (see figure above on the right) so that the plate is subject to pure distortion: \({\varepsilon }_{\text{xy}}\) must be constant or to pure shear so forces are applied. Therefore, the following displacement field is applied to the edges of the plate for distortion:

\(\mathrm{\{}\begin{array}{c}{u}_{x}\mathrm{=}{D}_{0}\mathrm{\cdot }y\\ {u}_{y}\mathrm{=}{D}_{0}\mathrm{\cdot }x\end{array}\mathrm{\Rightarrow }{\varepsilon }_{\mathit{xy}}\mathrm{=}\frac{1}{2}({u}_{x,y}+{u}_{y,x})\mathrm{=}{D}_{0}\)

So:

  • we impose an embedding in \({A}_{1}\),

  • \({u}_{x}={D}_{0}\cdot y,{u}_{y}=0\) on edge \({A}_{1}-{A}_{3}\), \({u}_{x}=0,{u}_{y}={D}_{0}\cdot x\) on edge \({A}_{1}-{A}_{2}\),

  • \({u}_{x}={D}_{0}\cdot y,{u}_{y}={D}_{0}\cdot L\) on edge \({A}_{2}-{A}_{4}\), \({u}_{x}={D}_{0}\cdot L,{u}_{y}={D}_{0}\cdot x\) on edge \({A}_{3}-{A}_{4}\),

where \({D}_{0}=3.3{10}^{-4}\) and \(f(t)\) represent the magnitude of cyclic loading as a function of the (pseudo-time) parameter \(t\), defined as:

6.2. Characteristics of the mesh#

Knots: 121.

Stitches: 200 TRIA3; 40 SEG2.

6.3. Tested sizes and results#

For the distortion, the shear force \({N}_{\mathrm{xy}}\) and \(B\) obtained by the two models are compared; the tolerances are taken in absolute values based on these relative differences:

6.4. notes#

A similar shear behavior is observed for laws BETON_REGLE_PRet ENDO_ISOT_BETON under load: the shear stiffness is however higher for law BETON_REGLE_PR (~ 15%).

The landfill response is not taken into account by law BETON_REGLE_PR (elastic response).

The shear response for BETON_REGLE_PRest symmetric unlike the ENDO_BETON_ISOT law for which the memory of cracking in one direction is retained.
