1.3.1. Material properties#
The behavior of the discrete is DIS_CONTACT, the material is DIS_CONTACT.
For loading path 1:
MAT1 = DEFI_MATERIAU (
DIS_CONTACT = _F (RIGI_NOR = 10000.0, 10000.0, RIGI_TAN =**20000.0,** COULOMB =** 0.3,
AMOR_TAN = 10.0, DIST_1 = 0.5, DIST_2 = 0.5 ),
)
The length of the discrete is \(1m\), with DIST_1 and DIST_2 taken into account, it is initially in contact without creating any effort.
For loading path 2:
MAT2 = DEFI_MATERIAU (
DIS_CONTACT = _F (RIGI_NOR = 10000.0, 10000.0, RIGI_TAN =**20000000.0,** COULOMB =** 0.3,
AMOR_TAN = 10.0, DIST_1 = 0.5, DIST_2 = 0.5 ),
)
The length of the discrete is \(1m\), with DIST_1 and DIST_2 taken into account, it is initially in contact without creating any effort.
For loading path 3:
MAT1 = DEFI_MATERIAU (
DIS_CONTACT = _F (RIGI_NOR = 10000.0, 10000.0, RIGI_TAN =**20000.0,** COULOMB =** 0.3,
AMOR_TAN = 10.0, DIST_1 = 0.5, DIST_2 = 0.75 ),
)
The length of the discrete is \(1m\), with DIST_1 and DIST_2 taken into account, it is initially in contact with the creation of an effort corresponding to a depression of \(0.25m\)
1.3.2. Boundary conditions and loads#
Node \(\mathit{Pt}2\) is stuck.
At node \(\mathit{Pt}1\), displacements are imposed according to the following time \(X,Y,Z\).
1.3.2.1. Loading path no. 1#
Table 1.3.2.1-a: Loading functions 1.

Figure 1.3.2.1-a : Charging path no**.**
With:
\(\mathit{Ux}\) represents the displacement in the discrete axis. A negative displacement corresponds to the « detachment » of the discrete.
\(\mathit{Uy},\mathit{Uz}\) represents the displacement in the tangential plane to the discrete.
1.3.2.2. Loading path no. 2#
This path is circular and makes it possible to verify that the frictional force is in the direction of the speed of movement.

Figure 1.3.2.2-a : Loading path no.2 .
With:
\(\mathit{Dx}\) represents the displacement in the discrete axis. The discreet is always in contact.
\(\mathit{Dy},\mathit{Dz}\) represents the displacement in the tangential plane to the discrete.
1.3.2.3. Loading path no. 3#
This path corresponds to path No. 1 in the tangential plane. As this discrete is initially pressed from \(0.25m\), the movement along the \(X\) axis is offset by \(-0.25m\) to obtain the same results.
1.4. C modeling#
This case models a discrete like POI1.

The material properties and the loading paths are identical to those of the B model.
