SSNS102 ­ Flambage of a cylindrical hull with
stiffener




Summary:

This test of nonlinear quasi-static mechanics makes it possible to validate elements SHB8 into nonlinear
geometrical, with or without taking into account of the following pressures and buckling of Euler. He shows them
capacities of this element to deal with problems of thin hulls with stiffener.

Summary of the results
The results obtained by Code_Aster with modeling SHB8 show the capacity of this element
to deal with problems of thin hulls with nongeometrical linearities.
The results with nonfollowing pressure are close to those of the reference.
The results with following pressure, for which one does not have a reference solution, show all
in the same way the good taking into account of this assumption in calculations.
