In this test case,
The following applications of Kratos are used:
- StructuralMechanicsApplication
- MeshingApplication with the MMG module
The problem corresponds with a steel cantilever 10x1 and considering as only load self-weight:
The simulation considers 100 time steps of 0.01s. The problem will be remeshed each ten steps considering the Hessian of the displacement. The initial mesh corresponds with:
The evolution of the mesh can be seen in the following figures:
Having as final result the following deformed shape:
