G05-B Family Coverage

Status

This document records the controlled internal prequalification campaign for 026-G05 modal, Newmark and harmonic routes. The official gate is closed as PASS_WITH_LIMITATIONS; the bounded external limitation remains explicit:

SUPPORTED != TESTED != VERIFIED != QUALIFIED.

The generated numerical source of truth is qualification/vnv/g05b_family_coverage/summary.json; its vnv_manifest.json records the exact source SHA, runtime and artifact digests after a clean run.

Executed campaign

Analysis Executed Contract target Result
Modal 14 14 PASS_INTERNAL_PREQUAL
Newmark 32 time-level cases 16 PASS_INTERNAL_PREQUAL
Harmonic 12 12 PASS_INTERNAL_PREQUAL

The modal catalog contains one baseline solve for each family and six declared two-mode variants. The Newmark count represents four actual integrations per baseline family at 30, 60, 120 and 240 steps per period. The harmonic catalog contains one baseline sweep per family and four refined-grid sweeps. Every listed case is executed; no READY status is counted as a result.

The compact family models exercise the common solve_model routes. They are not a replacement for each element's static evidence, external correlation, or the final Owner qualification decision.

Refinement evidence

The campaign aggregates existing controlled mesh studies rather than claiming that one-element family models constitute a universal mesh proof:

  • qualification/vnv/external/code_aster_modal_refinement_048/reference/summary.json
  • qualification/vnv/tet10_stable_refinement/reference/summary.json

The Owner-approved bounded policy is a final adjacent-level tracked-mode relative frequency change of <= 1e-2 over at least three compatible levels. It retains mode tracking and residual evidence; it is not a universal mesh convergence claim.

Newmark time

All baseline families run at 30/60/120/240 steps per period. The final adjacent-level error is below the proposed one-percent band for the campaign; the maximum over all levels is retained as a diagnostic because coarse starts are intentionally less accurate. The proposed metric is

||u_(dt/2) - u_dt|| / max(||u_(dt/2)||, u_floor) <= 1e-2.

It applies only to the same physical interval, load history and compatible output times. It is OWNER_APPROVED_BOUNDED; residual and energy criteria remain separate requirements.

Harmonic frequency

Baseline sweeps include zero, off-resonance, resonance and post-resonance points. TET4, HEX8, MITC4 and discrete receive a refined grid with local sampling around the first resonance. The proposed final-grid amplitude band is <= 1e-2, with phase and peak-bin movement reported separately. It is not applied at singular exact resonance or across changed damping/material data. This bounded policy is Owner-approved.

The identical HEX8/HEX20 values in this compact constrained block are an observed result of this particular model and are not evidence of formulation equivalence in general. Larger or element-specific studies remain necessary.

Bounded limitation and traceability

  1. The three refinement policies are OWNER_APPROVED_BOUNDED.
  2. Final aggregation is recorded in g05_final_evidence.json and owner_decisions.json.
  3. External correlation coverage remains bounded and is not element-family complete; the corresponding limitation is part of the Owner decision.

026-G05 is PASS_WITH_LIMITATIONS by Owner decision. This closeout does not promote unsupported external coverage or broaden any element claim.
