GGU-SLAB: Step 8: Evaluation via individual values (Example 1)

To compare the results to those of Schwarz go to the menu item "Evaluation/Individual values". If you click the required node using the left mouse button you will see a result box for this node, e.g. for the node in the slab centre at x = 2.0 m:

For the slab centre and the lower slab face for the values of x = 2, 4, 6 and 8 m Schwarz gives the displacements listed in the following tables. The results ascertained using GGU-SLAB (converted to [m]) are listed beside them.

x [m]	y [m]	Schwarz's solution	GGU-SLAB result
2,0	2,1	0,00373	0,00374
4,0	2,7	0,00604	0,00606
6,0	3,3	0,00604	0,00606
8,0	3,9	0,00373	0,00374

Table 1 Displacements at the slab centre [m]

x [m]	y [m]	Schwarz's solution	GGU-SLAB result
2,0	0,6	0,00367	0,00368
4,0	1,2	0,00608	0,00608
6,0	1,8	0,00623	0,00624
8,0	2,4	0,00396	0,00396

Table 2 Displacements at the lower slab face [m]

The results are practically identical.
