# PRESSURE TEST - SOLID ELEMENTS # # Problem Description # A pressure load is applied to a block of dimensions 1m x 1m x 1m. # The load is applied at time 0 and then held constant for the rest of # the time. # # Model Description # The block is modelled using a single Solid_Iso_6 element. Pressure is # applied at one side through the use of distributed node loads. # # Engineering Data # Mass of block = 1000 kg # Center of gravity = (0.5,0.5,0.5) # Ixx = Iyy = Izz = 250 kgm2 # ixy = Iyz = Izx = 0 # timestep = 0.005 seconds # # Reference results # Total force of block = 1.0 N # Acceleration of block = 0.001 m/s2 # # Comparisons of results # The block shows a linear increase in velocity to 0.001 m/s in # one second. This agrees with theory. # nodes 1 x = 0 y = 0 z = 0 2 x = 1 y = 0 z = 0 3 x = 1 y = 1 z = 0 4 x = 0 y = 1 z = 0 5 x = 0 y = 0 z = 1 6 x = 1 y = 0 z = 1 7 x = 1 y = 1 z = 1 8 x = 0 y = 1 z = 1 elements of type Solid_iso_6 1 nodes = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8] material = mat1 elements of type shell_C0_3 1 nodes = [6,3,2] material = mat1 t = 0.0001 load = press contact = off 2 nodes = [6,7,3] material = mat1 t = 0.0001 load = press contact = off loads press p = -1.0 materials of type elastic mat1 E = 210000000000 rho = 1000 nu = 0.3 trackers of type NodeVelocity 1 node = [1] direction = X filename = Ver_08.trk target = [1.0,0.000001,0.001,0.00001] controls run from 0 to 1.01 step 0.000025 print every 0.1 step print tracker every 0.001 step
