3. Modeling A

3.1. Characteristics of modeling

The modeling tested includes 8 elements DIS_TRsur of the SEG2 meshes. The stiffness characteristics of the discrete elements, which are used for the prediction of the nonlinear algorithm, are therefore of the type: K_ TR_D_L.

3.2. Characteristics of the mesh

Number of knots: 16, number of stitches SEG2: 8, elements DIS_TR: 8. Refer to § 1.2.1.

3.3. Boundary conditions and loads

Refer to § 1.4.

3.4. Discretization in time

The analysis time step and time interval are:

\(\mathrm{\Delta }t=\mathrm{1,0}{10}^{-2}\phantom{\rule{2em}{0ex}}s\) and \(t\in [:ref:`0s,24s <0s,24s>\)] `

3.5. Tested sizes and results

The quantities tested are the rotations, and the moments. The values are as shown in § 2.2.

Tolerances are by default.
