SDNL103 - Dynamics of a modelized gantry
by elements of beam in great rotation.
Comparison with an analysis in small rotation




Summary:

One analyzes the response of a gantry, embedded in feet and subjected to a dynamic force applied to the medium
of its span and perpendicular to its plan. Displacements are small. One compares two modelings of
beams:
POU_D_T_GD
and
POU_D_T
.
Interest: to test the element of beam in great rotation
MECA_POU_D_T_GD
and orders it
DYNA_NON_LINE
[U4.32.02].

Method of calculation used for the reference solution
This problem does not have an analytical solution. But, as displacements are small, one takes for
reference modeling by elements of beam
POU_D_T
.

Summary of the results
The variation compared to the reference solution is to the maximum of 3,5% during the transient.
reference solution being obtained with the elements
POU_D_T
, in small displacements, this variation is
thus explainable and remains weak in the course of time.
