SSNL103 - Beam Cantilever in great rotations
subjected to one moment
Summary:
Calculation of the static deformation of a beam fixed at an end and subjected to one bending moment with
the other end.
The beam is modelized by 5 elements
MECA_POU_D_T_GD
.
Interest:
To test the element of beam
MECA_POU_D_T_GD
and the algorithm of great displacements established in
STAT_NON_LINE
.
Note:
The algorithm is particularly powerful for this problem, since the deformation of a beam
straight line in closed traverse registers in a circle (reference solution) is obtained in 2 iterations.

4.2 Remarks
For this problem, convergence is exceptionally fast: 2 iterations. For the problems of
great rotations, static balance is in general reached in an iteration count of about 10.

Summary of the results
The deformation of the modelized beam is a CLOSED PENTAGON. But nodes, in situation
deformation, are apart from the circle of reference because the elements of beam
MECA_POU_D_T_GD
preserve their length but remain right instead of becoming deformed in arcs of
ring.
