*HEADING CLOAD test problem. File: ** ** There are two beams made from 4-node, 2-D solids. Each one has 20 ** elements along the length and 4 elements through the thickness for ** a total of 160 CPE4R elements and 210 nodes. The nodes on the ** right boundary are pinned. The nodes on the left boundary are ** constrained to remain in a straight line without sliding - the ** LINEAR MPC. ** ** Both beams are loaded with a CLOAD couple in the X-direction so ** that a pure moment is applied to the left end of the beam. The ** CLOADs on the top beam are follower forces, while the bottom are ** constant in direction. All loads are ramped linearly through time ** and have the same magnitude. On the right boundary the nodes are ** pinned. The material is elastic. ** ** Nodes at corners of the two beams ** *NODE 101,0.,0. 121,.4,0. 501,0.,.02 521,.4,.02 1101,0.,0.3 1121,.4,0.3 1501,0.,.32 1521,.4,.32 ** ** Bottom of lower beam ** *NGEN,NSET=B1 101,121 ** ** Top of lower beam ** *NGEN,NSET=T1 501,521 ** ** Bottom of upper beam ** *NGEN,NSET=B2 1101,1121 ** ** Top of upper beam ** *NGEN,NSET=T2 1501,1521 ** ** Fill both beams ** *NFILL B1,T1,4,100 B2,T2,4,100 ** ** Constrain left end of beams. ** *MPC BEAM,101,501 LINEAR,201,101,501 LINEAR,301,101,501 LINEAR,401,101,501 BEAM,1101,1501 LINEAR,1201,1101,1501 LINEAR,1301,1101,1501 LINEAR,1401,1101,1501 ** ** Elements for both beams. ** *ELEMENT,TYPE=CPE4R,ELSET=SOLID 101,101,102,202,201 1101,1101,1102,1202,1201 *ELGEN,ELSET=SOLID1 101,20,1,1,4,100,100 *ELGEN,ELSET=SOLID2 1101,20,1,1,4,100,100 *ELSET,ELSET=SOLID SOLID1,SOLID2 *SOLID SECTION,ELSET=SOLID,MATERIAL=SAMPLE ** ** Material properties are purely fictional. ** *MATERIAL,NAME=SAMPLE *ELASTIC 1.E9,0., *DENSITY 10000., *** *ELEMENT, TYPE=ROTARYI,ELSET=ROTARY 50000,101 60000,501 70000,1101 80000,1501 *ROTARY INERTIA,ELSET=ROTARY 1.E-10,1.E-10,1.E-10 ** ** Right side boundary conditions. ** *BOUNDARY 121,PINNED 221,PINNED 321,PINNED 421,PINNED 521,PINNED 1121,PINNED 1221,PINNED 1321,PINNED 1421,PINNED 1521,PINNED ** ** Ramp function for loads ** *AMPLITUDE,NAME=FUNC 0.,0.,.2,1. *RESTART,TIMEMARKS=YES,WRITE,NUMBER INTERVAL=1 ** *NSET,NSET=NOUT 101,1101 ** *STEP *DYNAMIC,EXPLICIT ,.2 ** ** Constant direction couple on lower beam. ** *CLOAD,AMPLITUDE=FUNC 101,1,4.90E5 501,1,-4.90E5 ** ** Follower couple on upper beam. ** *CLOAD,FOLLOWER,AMPLITUDE=FUNC 1101,1,4.90E5 1501,1,-4.90E5 ** *MONITOR,NODE=1101,DOF=6 *FILE OUTPUT,NUMBER=4,TIMEMARKS=YES *NODE FILE, NSET=NOUT U, *NSET, NSET=QA_TEST NOUT *OUTPUT, FIELD, NUMBER INTERVAL=4, TIMEMARKS=YES *NODE OUTPUT, NSET=QA_TEST U, *OUTPUT,HISTORY,TIME INTERVAL=0.2 *ENERGY OUTPUT, VAR=ALL ***OUTPUT,HISTORY,TIME INTERVAL=0.0002 ***NODE OUTPUT,NSET=NOUT **UR3, ***ENERGY OUTPUT,ELSET=SOLID1 **ALLSE,ALLKE ***ENERGY OUTPUT,ELSET=SOLID2 **ALLSE,ALLKE ***ENERGY OUTPUT **ALLKE,ALLIE,ALLSE,ALLAE,ALLVD,ALLWK,ETOTAL **DT, *PRINT, ETOTAL=YES *END STEP
