Multi linear Elastic Link Tension Only
Hi Midas
My intension was to understand the thermal interaction behavior between two parallel elements.
Model Description:
Two simple rectangular beams are modelled having vertically 500mm spacing. Both beams are simple supported, one end translationally fixed other end sliding. Only bottom beam a uniform thermal load of 350C is applied. There are multilinear spring between the two beams @1m interval are exist. The multilinear spring stiffness defined as a tension spring only, as per the below screenshot.
However, in the result, there is no axial load in either of the beam. but I can see the bottom beam is axially deforming.
May I ask if the multilinear spring definition is not correctly defined. Please find attached .mcb file for reference.
