SDNS01 - Nonparametric probabilistic model -
parametric of a flexbeam with not
localized linearities of shock




Summary:

This case-test relates to the nonparametric and parametric probabilistic models of uncertainties in
linear dynamics with possibly of nonthe localized linearities. The mechanical model used is one
rectangular plate with an elastic stop of shock. Random generators of matrices and variables
random (operators
GENE_MATR_ALEA
and
GENE_VARI_ALEA
) are tested and validated in this case test.
statistical postprocessings (
CALC_FONCTION
) are also tested.
This case-test has two modelings. The first uses a damping proportional. The second
use a definite reduced damping by the key word
CALC_AMOR_GENE
of
COMB_MATR_ASSE
thus testing this
functionality.

Reference solution
2.1
Method of calculation used for the reference solution
We study the transitory response of a nonlinear dynamic system subjected to a load
impulse determinist due to a shock on the structure. Nonthe linearity of the system is due to one
butted elastic of high rigidity comprising a certain play. Spectra of frequency response
standardized are used in order to study the transitory response of this system. Equations of
dynamics are discretized by the method with the finite elements. The mesh of the structure is supposed
sufficient fine to collect all the dynamic phenomena of this mechanical system in term of
field of displacement for the impulse loading considered. Random uncertainties of
dynamic system are modelized by using the nonparametric probabilistic model
uncertainties. Consequently, the transitory answer is a nonstationary stochastic process
whose statistical estimates are evaluated.
The results of reference are given in the form of graphs in the article referred below,

Characteristics of modeling
Modeling:
DKT
The average model with the finite elements of the plate consists of a regular rectangular mesh
whose pitch is constant and is worth 0.01m in directions X
1
and X
2
. There are thus 41 nodes in
width and 51 nodes in the length. Consequently, all the finite elements are identical and
each one is an element plates with 4 nodes. This average model finite elements comprises 2000 elements
stop and m=6009 degrees of freedom, by counting only the translations in Z and rotations according to X
1
and X
2
).

Modeling:
DIS_T
The concentrated masses and the concentrated stiffness are modelized by elements
DIST_T
.
Damping
The matrix of damping [D] of the model average finite element is defined as being one
linear combination of the average matrices finite elements of mass [M] and stiffness [K]. One thus has
[D] =a [M] + B [K] with

Small-scale model and ddl observed
For this case test, the model finite elements is projected on the first 5 elastic modes of
structure linearized, which constitutes the data of the model reduces average. It should be noted that 5 first
modes are not enough to obtain convergence compared to the number of modes (cf paragraph
Comments of the Results of modelings).
The degree of freedom observed is D.D.L J
stop
corresponding to displacement in translation according to Z of
node or are the elastic stops. It is the node of co-ordinates (0.31, 0, 0). The spectrum of
response standardized for this D.D.L is built for a tape of frequential analysis J=2
[1, 100]
rad/S and of which the frequential resolution is of 0.5Hz.
Achievements of the random matrices of the nonparametric probabilistic model ­ parametric
The matrices of masses, stiffnesses and dissipation of the model reduces average are replaced by
achievements of the random matrices of mass, stiffnesses and of dissipation according to the model
nonparametric probabilist. For that, we use the generator of random matrices
GENE_MATR_ALEA
. At the time of the first call to this generator, the key word
INIT
must take the value
“YES”
in order to initialize the generator of random variable of uniform law of Python. Thereafter,
INIT
will be able to take its default value (
INIT= `NON'
). The initialization of the generator of random variable
of Python is to be done only one and only once by study, in theory, except if the user wishes
explicitly to re-use the same random pseudo sequence.

The level of dispersion of the random matrices of the nonparametric probabilistic model is controlled
by a parameter of dispersion
fixed at 20% (
=0.2). The key word
DELTA
thus takes value 0.2.
Lastly, for each hard copy of the random matrices of mass, stiffness and dissipation, it is necessary
to inform the corresponding average matrix of the model reduces average via the key word
MATR_MOYEN
.
The stiffness of shock is it also made random due to uncertainties. To build a realization
stiffness of shock following a law gamma, we use the random generator
GENE_VARI_ALEA
with the key word
TYPE= `GAMMA'
. We suppose that the possible whole of the values for
achievements of the random stiffness of shock is the interval [0, +
[, that the average value of the unit
achievements of the stiffnesses of shock corresponds to the stiffness of shock of the average model finite elements.
The level of dispersion of the achievements of the stiffness of shock is controlled by a parameter
'fixed at
1% (
=0.01). The key word
DELTA
thus takes value 0.01.
Resolution of the probabilistic nonlinear dynamic system.
The operator
DYNA_TRAN_MODAL
is used to build the transitory response of the dynamic system
nonlinear for each realization of the random stiffness of random shock and the matrices of mass,
of stiffness and dissipation. It should be noted that we carry out for this case test only N
S
=5
achievements of each random variable (stiffness of shock + matrices) what corresponds to 5 iteration of
method of digital simulation of Monte Carlo (cf paragraph Comments of the Results of
modelings).
The temporal interval of the study is T= [0,4] S, with a pitch of 5. 10
­ 5
S. The diagram of integration
temporal selected is EULER.
Construction of the statistical estimates.
After each call to
DYNA_TRAN_MODAL
, we have a realization of the process
stochastic of generalized displacements. It is thus possible to build acceleration with the node
of shock following D.D.L.J
stop
by the operator
RECU_FONCTION
. The spectrum of answer standardized is
then built by the operator
CALC_FONCTION
.
These two operations are classically carried out at the time of deterministic studies and give us here
a realization of the stochastic process of the spectrum of answer standardized. It is then about
to build statistical estimates of N
S
achievements of this last. Estimates considered
in this case test are the envelopes min and max as well as the average and the moment of command two of
standardized spectra of answer. With each hard copy (iteration of Monte Carlo) we build these
estimates with the aid only of the operator
CALC_FONCTION
and of the key words
WRAP
,
POWER
and
COMB
. At the end of N
S
iterations of Monte Carlo, we have the estimates
required statistics relating to the stochastic process of the spectrum of answers standardized. Finally
L2 of the average normalizes is calculated by the key word
NORMALIZES
of the operator
CALC_FONCTION
. Interest
to evaluate such a standard is to allow studies of convergence according to the number of modes of
model reduces average random and according to the iteration count of the numerical method of Goes up
Carlo. This standard is calculated here to check that the functionality goes, but convergence is not
not reached to save time CPU.

4.2 Comments
The various statistical estimates are not converged here. Only 5 simulations of
Monte Carlo were made. One would have needed 700 at least of them. Moreover, it is necessary to increase the number of
modes with 50 to obtain the convergence of the model projected in the frequency band considered.
Calculations being then too long for a case test, we preferred to voluntarily degenerate them
two convergences after validation of those on a complete study. After convergence, them
statistical estimates calculated starting from Aster correspond very exactly to the results given
by the standard commodity.
