Meshes done with CAST3M

Tests are preceded with a calculation step during which structures are meshed.

Meshes of models Camus

These examples illustrate one of the typical applications of CAST3M done in the laboratory. This calculation code enables the modeling of the behaviors of sebsets as well as the ones of entire structures.

The deformations of the building represented here are very strongly amplified.
