SSNA102 - Contact multicorps elastic




Summary:

This problem of nonlinear statics of an axisymmetric structure makes it possible to test the two alternatives of
the algorithm of contact in great displacements.
Calculation consists of the modeling of a structure made up of several elastic bodies in contact
unilateral without friction. This calculation already was object IPSI-Phi2AS the case-test describes in the note
HI-75/97/034/0. The reference solution comes from calculations carried out with codes ABAQUS, SYSTUS and
The SAMCEF software.

Results of reference
Vertical displacement of point PA4:
ABAQUS: - 0.83 mm
SYSTUS: - 0.82 mm
The SAMCEF software: - 0.78 mm
that is to say

Vertical component of the reaction to embedding LBC4:
ABAQUS: 110270 NR
SYSTUS: 109500 NR
The SAMCEF software: 105000 NR

that is to say 108257 NR



NB:
The efforts calculated by Aster into axisymmetric are it by radian. The value to be aimed is thus

2.3
Uncertainties on the solution
Dispersion around the average value of vertical displacement in PA4 is 4%. Dispersion
around the vertical reaction to embedding is 3%.

3.1
Characteristics of modeling
One uses the algorithm algoco.f i.e here the algorithm by defect of the key word CONTACT. It is one
algorithm of active stresses where one activates/decontaminates the connections until reaching one by one one
state of contact satisfying the conditions kinematics, before turning over towards an iteration of
Newton.

Summary of the results
The results are satisfactory taking into account the diversity of the origin of the reference solution.
Although the two algorithms of contact give identical results in displacement and in
force, returned effective surfaces of contact differ slightly. Sights respective natures
of the two algorithms, that is completely comprehensible. To obtain the same ones exactly
results, it is necessary to make calculations in 10 pitches of time.
Lastly, the difference in time CPU between the two algorithms is explained by the more significant number
iterations of Newton carried out by the algorithm algocp.f (METHOD: “LAGRANGIAN”).
