With the Flexural Test option in ElastoDict, the reaction of a material to bending loads can be analyzed. The simulation corresponds to a three-point bending flexural test according to ISO 14125 [12] provides the flexural modulus as well as flexural stress and strain as results.

As in most applications in GeoDict, only a small domain of the structure is needed for the simulation. However, it is necessary that the structure in GeoDict contains the complete height of the real structure.

Click the Solver Options Edit button to set the Flexural Test simulations settings. In the Flexural Test Options dialog, choose a Result File Name (*.gdr) according to your current project.
