TensorMechanicsPlasticTensile

buildconstruction:Undocumented Class

The TensorMechanicsPlasticTensile has not been documented. The content listed below should be used as a starting point for documenting the class, which includes the typical automatic documentation associated with a MooseObject; however, what is contained is ultimately determined by what is necessary to make the documentation clear for users.

Associative tensile plasticity with hardening/softening, and tensile_strength = 1

    C++ Type:double

    Controllable:No

    Description:If the yield function is less than this amount, the (stress, internal parameter) are deemed admissible.

Required Parameters

  • cap_rate0For the 'cap' tip_scheme, this controls how quickly the cap degenerates to a hemisphere: small values mean a slow degeneration to a hemisphere (and zero means the 'cap' will be totally inactive). Typical value is 1/tensile_strength

    Default:0

    C++ Type:double

    Controllable:No

    Description:For the 'cap' tip_scheme, this controls how quickly the cap degenerates to a hemisphere: small values mean a slow degeneration to a hemisphere (and zero means the 'cap' will be totally inactive). Typical value is 1/tensile_strength

  • cap_start0For the 'cap' tip_scheme, smoothing is performed in the stress_mean > cap_start region

    Default:0

    C++ Type:double

    Controllable:No

    Description:For the 'cap' tip_scheme, smoothing is performed in the stress_mean > cap_start region

  • execute_onTIMESTEP_ENDThe list of flag(s) indicating when this object should be executed, the available options include NONE, INITIAL, LINEAR, NONLINEAR, TIMESTEP_END, TIMESTEP_BEGIN, MULTIAPP_FIXED_POINT_END, MULTIAPP_FIXED_POINT_BEGIN, FINAL, CUSTOM, ALWAYS.

    Controllable:No

    Description:An optional suffix parameter that can be appended to any attempt to retrieve/get material properties. The suffix will be prepended with a '_' character.

    Default:25

    C++ Type:double

    Controllable:No

    Description:Smoothing parameter: the edges of the cone are smoothed by the given amount.

  • tensile_lode_cutoffIf the second invariant of stress is less than this amount, the Lode angle is assumed to be zero. This is to guard against precision-loss problems, and this parameter should be set small. Default = 0.00001*((yield_Function_tolerance)^2)

    C++ Type:double

    Controllable:No

    Description:If the second invariant of stress is less than this amount, the Lode angle is assumed to be zero. This is to guard against precision-loss problems, and this parameter should be set small. Default = 0.00001*((yield_Function_tolerance)^2)

  • tip_schemehyperbolicScheme by which the pyramid's tip will be smoothed.

    Default:hyperbolic

    C++ Type:MooseEnum

    Options:hyperbolic, cap

    Controllable:No

    Description:Scheme by which the pyramid's tip will be smoothed.

Optional Parameters

  • allow_duplicate_execution_on_initialFalseIn the case where this UserObject is depended upon by an initial condition, allow it to be executed twice during the initial setup (once before the IC and again after mesh adaptivity (if applicable).

    Default:False

    C++ Type:bool

    Controllable:No

    Description:In the case where this UserObject is depended upon by an initial condition, allow it to be executed twice during the initial setup (once before the IC and again after mesh adaptivity (if applicable).

  • control_tagsAdds user-defined labels for accessing object parameters via control logic.
