SDLL14 - Modes of vibration of an elbow
of thin piping




Summary:

This test consists in seeking the Eigen frequencies and the modes of vibration associated with a piping
bent. It makes it possible to validate modelings finite elements PIPE (SEG3 and SEG4) and TUYAU_6M (SEG4).

The results obtained are compared with an analytical reference solution.

8.2 Remarks
The mesh in SEG4 is obtained starting from a mesh SEG3 with the control
CREA_MAILLAGE
,
MODI_MAILLE
with option “SEG3_4”. It is important that the node medium of the SEG3 is well with
medium, Code_Aster checks this condition with a tolerance.
